The Fun Begins!
Every Wednesday evening at the deliciously hip @BakerFalls, something wonderful and unhinged is happening. Picture a rehearsal for the apocalypse, if the apocalypse were run by clowns — that’s the closest I can get to describing it.
It’s called @The_Idiots_Hour and it’s exactly what it sounds like: a rotating cast of clowns and performing artists testing out brand-new material in front of an audience that’s generous, loud, and completely along for the ride. I’ve been shooting this thing for a while now, and the material coming out of it is out of this world — hysterical, surreal, grungy around the edges, and just plain fun to watch.
Here are a few frames from the July 15th show. It runs every Wednesday around 7pm, and if you haven’t been, go. Produced by Matthew Silver — a singular performer in his own right.Every Wednesday evening at the very hip joint #BakerFalls there is an experiment that almost feels like you are visiting a ‘bonkers-gone-wild’ practice session for an upcoming apololipse.
A group of clowns and performing artist ‘try out’ new material on a very appreciative and supportive audience. It is called ‘The Idiots Hour’.
I have been shooting many of these and the work is ‘out of this world’. Hysterical, funny, surreal, grungy and most of all it is FUN to watch. Here are a few photographs from the July 15th performance. EVERY WEDNESDAY at 7pm~ I suggest you go! Produced by Matthew Silver. A unique performer in his own right!
