Snowflake

In this one-man silent comedy, Gale LaJoye portrays a childlike, innocent street character who lives on a vacant lot strewn with rubbish. Snowflake entertains himself by recycling discarded objects into comic treasures-a crate becomes a ski hill, a bedframe is transformed into an unlikely musical instrument. Described as a comic descendent of Red Skelton and Charlie Chaplin, LaJoye blends his virtuosic clown skills with eloquent mime, slapstick, feats of balance, and a poignant honesty that never fails to touch his audience, regardless of age. This is truly the perfect holiday celebration, as Snowflake reminds us that joy is most often found in simple things.
