Colonial Circus - History, Clown Style
Two Brown Clowns, Pretending to be British Colonizers, Take You Through The History of Colonialism With A Wink & Play. Colonial Circus- Artists’ Pick of Edmonton Fringe (2025), is back with new bits, sharp satire, loads of laughter and gasps.
This show has travelled the continent (Orlando, Cincinnati, Toronto, St. John’s, Montreal & Edmonton) and even crossed the pond (London, UK), collecting laughs and awards such as Critics’ Choice- Best Comedy at Orlando Winter Fringe, Outstanding Clown show- Montreal Fringe, Spirit of the Fringe- Toronto Fringe.
This wild clown show mixes history, humour, and a dash of Alejandro Jodorowsky-inspired mysticism into one thrilling, unpredictable ride. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and probably ask, “Did I just laugh at that?!”

Fringe Theatre Reviews (UK)
An immersive comedy through the lens of two clowns who take you on a ride through the history of colonization with a sense of play and a wink. Get ready for moments that’ll have you laughing out loud—and others that might make you squirm and ask yourself, “Did I really just laugh at that?” You’ll laugh, gasp, and hurt, all in the same beat!
