MDR – Death from laughter
The three clowns Rossinyol, Mardi and Melon face an unexpected twist: a member of the audience has died of laughter during their previous show. In an act of responsibility, they will try to stop the propagation of a deadly virus, laughter!
Who will be on their side? Will justice? Will they find a solution? Or will they be punished?
They need you to transmit optimism while awakening a critical spirit.
You will be only at risk to die from laughter…
MDR – Death from Laughter is a clown show that questions the arbitrariness of justice through humour and the experience of the clown: Their wild and clumsy nature, and their existential need to exist take them through an improbable and eccentric show, where laughter, having fun and fantasy are motor.

DURATION: 60 min
AGE: From 12 years
LANGUAGE: ENGLISH
(MDR stands for Mort de riure – Catalan for Death from laughter)

ABOUT THE COMPANY
Los Galindos was created in 1991. The project emerged from a synergy between continuous research and young energy in collective creation. We have developed an artistic project with our own signature and we have created 15 shows. We have received several awards, within them we highlight the National Prize of Culture 2016 to our career. With MDR – Death from laughter we go back to the street format with a risky and committed circus show.
Los Galindos has visited PASSAGE Festival several times with their Mongolian yurt and performances such as Udul. www.losgalindos.net
