The Flying Karamazov Brothers
Tuesday, August 24th, 2010Yesterday, in New York City, I went with some of my extended family to see the latest show by The Flying Karamazov Brothers, entitled “4PLAY”. This was both extremely impressive and totally hilarious, for kids as well as adults. It runs through March 7 at the Minetta Lane Theatre (18 Minetta Lane, New York, NY).
In order to describe it without spoilers, here is a list of adjectives:
- Blue Man Group
- Circus
- Comedy
- Dancing
- Drum
- Four-part a capella
- Guitar
- Humor
- Joke
- Juggling
- Marx Brothers
- Monty Python’s Flying Circus
- Parody
- Penn and Teller
- Piano
- Pun
- Repartee
- Trombone
You might think there’s no way to make juggling interesting after so many years, especially if you’ve seen, e.g., Cirque de Soleil. The Brothers have new takes on juggling, especially juggling as a form of music. Bring an object that you’d like to see them juggle! Here’s one review. You can easily find others by searching the web. But just go see it, and bring some kids!
