Anne Zander is a “master of physical comedy,” a real-life mother of twins, and she is on a mission to bring birthing parents out of the dark corners of isolation into the cathartic light of shared laughter.
Her “completely ridiculous… completely vulnerable” take on the mess, horror, tenderness and unbelievably absurdity that is becoming a parent out of your very own body has had audiences in stitches and tears from New York to LA to Denver to Vegas; do not miss her Canadian debut (BroadwayWorld)!
Called “sexy,” “gay,” “poignant” and “hysterical” by audiences, this solo clown show will have you relating deeply or blow your mind wide open, then make you laugh until you pee a little (and we won’t judge your pelvic floor strength here).
“Zander is a master of physical comedy... at the same time as she's completely ridiculous, [she] is also completely vulnerable.” — BroadwayWorld
"...Zander has eyes that pierce and the ability to register an overwhelming number of emotions at once..." — Exuent Magazine
"Anne Zander... brilliantly portrayed the struggle between levity and darkness... particularly powerfully done, and very moving." — Backstage Pass
"… Zander is manic, but brings a fantastic energy to the stage in everything she does." — View from the Gods
Anne Zander (she/her/hers) is a queer, neurodivergent mother, actor, clown, solo-character creator and physical comedy teacher whose deep interest in rites of passage has led to solo works that capture the body horror, desire/repulsion and tender recognizability of these irreversible life transitions, shining laughter into the dark corners of human existence.
