Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Double Trouble

Circo Comedia has all the expected zany characters of any modern circus: the juggler, the trick cyclist, the acrobat, the burlesque clown, the magician and the bumbling magician’s assistant. But the troupe takes up less room than you’d expect; this Montréal-based tour de force is a party of two. Jean Saucier and Patrick Côté may come from humble beginnings — Saucier once delivered newspapers via unicycle — but, together, they’ve worked impressive gigs with Cirque du Soleil, Cirque Comik and Cirque National des Clowns. Masterfully skirting imminent danger by way of physical comedy, the Vaudevillian duo clown around in Stowe next Wednesday.
