Commedia della Basque “A Basquette Quese” by American clown Iman Lizarazu is a story about the struggle with insomnia and desperate attempts to fall asleep!
Starring Iman Lizarazu, “Basquette Case” is a story about a clown struggling with insomnia and desperately trying to fall asleep! In a hilarious take on a condition that has affected us all at some point, Iman takes mime to new heights as she cooks up side-splitting strategies to hopefully get some blessed sleep. The result is a rollicking whirlwind of bed-time antics that include juggling pillow feathers, a Flamenco ballet while juggling seven rings, a pirate’s adventure atop a balance board, and even a tango that brings her clothes hanger Max to life!
Iman’s performance totally mesmerizes the audience. Her world-renowned physical comedy, brilliant mime, dance and juggling deliver original, invigorating, tender and genuine entertainment.
Iman is a world master and teacher of Eccentric Performing, Circus Arts, and Commedia dell’Arte. Bring Iman to your community, and let her enrich the lives of your audiences forever!
