Best Clown Show Award at the Zirkólika Awards 2023


Only the walls remain, dirty and wrinkled.
The clown makes us accomplices of the person who inhabits him, connecting us with failure, loneliness, and nostalgia with naiveté and audacity.
An intimate, crazy and human story that speaks to us of freedom and the passage of time.
A small physical and temporary space where everything is possible, which mixes the arts of clowning, gesture theatre and live music;
ZLOTY

CO-PRODUCTION OF FIRA TÀRREGA 2022
SYNOPSIS
ZLOTY tells the story of two characters, a clown and a musician, former members of an old traveling circus troupe from the beginning of the last century.
A violent storm ripped the roof off their tent, destroying the space that housed their show, their livelihood, and leaving them jobless. At this point, the members of the troup were overwhelmed and helpless, and this is where their downfall began, their failure, their bittersweet decline... and the company dissolved.
Now only they remain, the most innocent and unaware souls of the group; the clown and the musician, who, burdened with their broken tent and the fire truck with which they moved the circus, make their way, by inertia, aimlessly, observers of a changing world…
In their eagerness to continue on their journey, the truck, the only one that seemed to keep going and never abandon them, decided to stop working; it broke down.
And here ZLOTY begins. In their attempt to start the truck, they unintentionally reveal their story and how they got to where they are today. Their life of freedom and their flaws, trying, by any means necessary, to get the truck running so they can KEEP GOING.
Will they succeed?
A clown who undresses to show what is behind the "mask" and at the same time, to share it since the profession is now an inseparable part of him.
The music, composed exclusively for Zloty, accompanies us emotionally and reinforces what happens in each scene. Like these two characters, who accompany, help, and strengthen each other, in their own way.
