Slava Snowshow Opening Night

MARQUEE VALUE: Slava's Snowshow at the Helen Hayes Theatre

By Matthew Blank
01 Dec 2008

Previews: December 2, 2008

Opening: December 7, 2008

Venue: Helen Hayes Theatre, 240 West 44th Street, New York, NY 10036


Russia's greatest clown strings together a sensory whirlwind for the entire family, combining theatrical spectacle with the unbridled hilarity and heart-warming poignancy of the art of clowning. A cast of ten presents a series of breathtaking images performed to popular music. A giant cobweb stretches over the entire audience; a raging blizzard coats the crowd in snow; giant helium-filled beach balls are kept afloat by the viewers. Lyrical, hilarious, poignant and brilliant.
