Gnatwing! A Farce for Clowns is Theatre-of-the-Absurd for youngsters, parents, and all the young at heart. Featuring direct audience involvement in a frantic game of hide-and-seek, and a chase that mirrors animated cartoons, Gnatwing!—in clown face and exaggerated movement—is incredibly zany. Based on a Scandinavian folk tale, this play in performance transforms into a wonderfully inspired madness. After the premiere of Gnatwing!, Robert Long, a sixth grade teacher, said, “In all my years of teaching and attending plays with school children, I’ve never before experienced anything like the enthusiastic audience participation I witnessed tonight. It was electric.†Over the years, Mr. Long’s comments have been echoed by other teachers and parents, as well as by the actors caught in the uproariously funny hide-and-seek climax of the play.
