THE MARVELOUS MISADVENTURES
OF BOOFUS AND SCHMOOZLE
created by Joelle and Shel Wyminga
September 7-17, 2023
The Picnic Pavillion, Granville Island
A part of the Vancouver Fringe Festival
Two misfit clowns find themselves up creek without a paddle when their traveling circus leaves them behind due to a bad case of stage fright. What Boofus and Schmoozle lack in polish they make up for in resourcefulness and they quickly find themselves flying through the mayhem of an impromptu performance in a last ditch attempt to learn cooperation and earn some desperately needed coin. Props fly, hyjinx abound and panic rises as the pantomiming pair hurtle through a series of desperate acts that grow progressively more surreal as buttons and boundaries are pushed. The Marvelous Misadventures Of Boofus and Schmoozle is a ludicrous celebration of sibling partnership that unabashedly explores the tension of conflicting needs and anxieties, with the comfort of having someone in your corner.
