Noses are Red… is a contemporary red-nose clown show, jam packed with silliness, physical comedy, and incredible daring feats! Watch best mates Sally and Danger as they break every Olympic record ever set, do magic tricks that will have you questioning the essence of reality itself, and play Shakespeare’s tragedies with more gusto than all of Lawrence Olivier’s performances combined.
Performed by Meredith Cole (Gaulier trained, Clown Doctor, writer/performer of ‘Brian Little Fingers’, John Bolton Theatre School graduate), and Oliver Cowen (Federation University & John Bolton Theatre School graduate, writer/performer of ‘Oliver Sudden’), and directed by Guy Langford (Toi Whakaari: NZ Drama School & École Philippe Gaulier graduate and teacher).
A development season of Noses are Red… garnered four awards at the Gasworks Circus Showdown 2021.
“Really joyous, really fun… uplifting and whimsical” - Elena Kirschbaum (‘Gluttony’ and ‘Highwire Entertainment’)
“Bursts of energy and ridiculousness” - Debra Button (‘Circus Oz’ and ‘A Good Catch’)
