Famed international comedian Doug Berky arrives in Central Louisiana with opportunities to see his “No Show” production at Rapides Parish Library branches. 

 

“No Show” is a comic tapestry woven from physical comedy, mime, music, mask theatre, clowning, improvisation, and circus arts. Doug draws from these vast traditions to delight audiences as a wrap up to RPL’s Summer Reading Program. 

 

Admission is free. 

 

“No Show” begins with the premise that a performance has been scheduled, the stage is set with props and costumes, the audience has gathered and is seated and waiting, but the actors are a no show. What might happen when someone from the audience aproaches the stage and discovers all that awaits. Masterful mayhem? Can one really keep rhythm juggling shakers while playing classical music on harmonica?
