The 28 Xirivella's International Show of Clowns and Clowns will begin at the end of September with a benchmark of the political circus in our country, the italian Leo Bassi, the creator of Esgèsia Patòlica in the Madrid neighborhood of Lavapiés from which he has pontificated many Sundays to highlight the contradictions of the Catholic Church and the official narrative in general. Bassi puts his humor at the service of the weak and against the powerful, if it has previously been against the Vatican Curia, in the show he will present in Xirivella it will be against fascism represented in the figure of Benito Mussolini. In Yo, Mussolini, the Italian buffoon sticks his head in the lion's mouth again trying to fight with laughter the spread of fear with which fascism is strengthened. The Xiriville show will bring together other prestigious names from the clown scene such as Goose & Inc., which includes everyday heroes in its shows, stupid and transparent; Hosta pears, forerunner of "serious humor"; Clownbaret, who will present a review of his fifteen years of illustrious shows in The Pestoff; o The head, company that took the big leap with the work Time flies, nominated for the Zirkòlika awards as Best Clown Show in Catalonia 2019. There will also be space for Valencian companies such as Lead pot by Xavi Castillo, Amoeba Theatre, The Malabó Troupe o Quique Montoya. AU
