Rooted in a unique style of theatrical clowning, AGA-BOOM combines the unbridled silliness of slapstick, physical comedy, goofy mime, theatrical expressionism, poetry, and European avant-garde.
The combination of these elements creates a new standard of comedy and will change your point of view toward clowning itself. AGA-BOOM will bring you back to the excitement, pure delighted amazement, and wonder of childhood. It will make you laugh, think, participate and enjoy your life.
Our troupe of performers come to us from Cirque du Soleil's "Alegria" and "O", Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus and The Great Moscow Circus. AGA-BOOM brings together on the stage the best traditions of circus, comedy and experimental clown theater you have ever seen.
Guaranteed to make even the glum thaw into happiness!
AGA-BOOM was nominated for the Ovation Award, in the category of best touring show, along with The Producers, 42nd Street, Lily Tomlin and Elaine Stritch.
Read what the reviewers are saying:
*****LA TIMES - Don Shirley
Closer to being literally riotous - as in so funny that the audience did more than just laugh - than any theatrical experience within memory! The kids in the audience were on cloud 9, but hardly more so than the adults!"
***** DAILY NEWS
A Booming Success... Deft, as well as humorous and wonderfully weird. There's something vaguely post-apocalyptic about the world established by Aga-Boom-ers."
*****LA WEEKLY'S Pick of the Week
The clever cast, four distinct personalities playing off one another in well-choreographed chases, wordless banter, and slapstick comedy
Grown-ups with or without children will appreciate the show's sophisticated sense of humor... For the finale, the performers draw the audience into a massive, messy paper and balloon fight which is as fun as it sounds!
*****BACKSTAGE WEST "Critic's Choice"
A hugely entertaining experience, masterminded and directed by Dimitri Bogatirev and his wife, Iryna Ivanytska, both former members of Cirque du Soleil
This show forms a bond with its audience for a shared energy that is infectious
A frenzy of scenes that build toward an unforgettable chaotic finale, show culminates in sheer glee. The fantastic score by Vassiliy Bogatiriov should be made available on CD.
