Xhloe Rice & Natasha Roland: THE DOCTOR WAS HIS MOTHER

From Edinburgh Fringe favorites Xhloe Rice and Natasha Roland comes a night of absurdist clown, stand up, and beating a dead horse. You've heard the one about the boy in the car crash? Something about his doctor and his mother? An hour of clown and comedy full of Xhloe and Natasha's signature style of physicality, fast pace, and absurdist humor, not weighed down by character, plot, or historical influence! If you love narrative, structure, and male dominated fields then you'll hate this show, but if a strange night of strange laughs is your thing, run, don't walk, just make sure to check your biases at the door.

Xhloe and Natasha are a New York City based, multi disciplinary writing/performing duo that have been in collaboration for over a decade, creating absurdist clown physical theatre and comedy. They are known for creating work that is highly physical, fast paced, historically influenced, and inspired by archetypes of Americana. Xhloe and Natasha are three-time consecutive recipients of the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Festival Fringe First Award for Outstanding New Writing. Their show “A Letter To Lyndon B Johnson or God: Whoever Reads this First” was the recipient of the Soho Playhouse Encore Series Prize as well as the Broadway Baby Bobby Award for Excellence. Recently, they were named part of the “Theatrely 31” as young theatre makers poised for a meteoric rise and were awarded an “Offie” Off-West End Award for Best Performance. They have been called “the most promising young theatre-makers to emerge from Edinburgh Fringe in recent years” by Everything Theatre and “The Fringe’s most dynamic theatrical duo” by The Telegraph. Xhloe and Natasha are represented by the Gersh Agency.
