The Piece

He carries around a big cardboard box, the show he’s just written is astounding, he has no doubt ! Suddenly, an audience seems to be waiting for him. Delighted by this encounter, this irresistible character heroically wrestles with everyday objects in an attempt to communicate with the audience. And his vain attempts often end up being his greatest successes! Just like the greats, Jamie Adkins has the power to make people laugh with insignificance.

Press

Le Monde (FR)

The genius acts of Jamie Adkins unleash a laughter that gives wings. Circus Incognitus is a little gem of burlesque freshness that can be just as selfishly enjoyed by adults. It's the timeless burlesque tale of a little human grappling with the multiple difficulties of everyday life, which can take on a truly Kafkaesque turn. And with Jamie Adkins, it's the body that speaks, with a precision and grace that make you take off from the ground. A clown. A true one, of great class.

The Guardian (UK)

Disheveled by the challenges he miraculously faces, Adkins' lovably eccentric clown is the eternal little human we all know, forever dismayed by the tiny victories he achieves over the universe. We take immense pleasure in following his feats and wholeheartedly support, with ou unconditional applause, the encouragement he ingenuously seeks from us as he reveals in his small triumphs...

Le Devoir (CA)

Here is a show that keeps its promise by offering an undeniably funny, spirit-filled and poetic evening, appealing to audiences of all kinds
