Ferdinand the Magnificent

Absurd clown Ferdinand Magnificent returns to the Playhouse! A pink Spandex body suit. A green bowtie. A diaper... with a bell. A rather... absurd nose. A trip through the universe. A quest for love. These are all that Ferdinand has, or knows, or is... until he meets friends along the way. Ferdinand sings his world into existence, and puppetry, juggling, and slapstick and are all part of the journey. Join this wild, witty, irreverent Clown on his mystical, musical trip through space and time, and play along as he encounters the Bizarre, the Fantastical, the Absurd... and perhaps even the Magnificent!

This special return engagement to the Arcata Playhouse (where Ferdinand spent his formative years!) is a full, hour-long show featuring lots of new material never seen before in California!
