The Mystic Clown
Nourished by his sense of the oneness of all things this clown returns again and again to the simplicity of being and remembers his part in the vast mystery of the universe. With his openess he is a mirror for the world. In a natural way. Lex van Someren presents clowning as a sacred art form, where silence and nothingness become the source of inspiration for spontaneous improvisations on stage. With great passion and respect he involves his audience in his acts.
"With his tours throughout the whole country he has given Norwegian theatre a new visual language. He is an important source of inspiration for his colleahues in this country."

"It is pure poetry. This mystic clown is a "child of paradise" and we all long to be led back into that happy country. His magic touches the hardest heart." -Kathleen Raine, poetress -
