Clowning Gets Hip & Edgy
The Public Theater
POV
Estonian-born, London-based Julia Masli has taken the culture by storm (she was the hit of the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe), somehow making being a “clown” utterly hip. Combing elements of performance art with an effortless ability to convey absurdity, her performances are outrageous, sometimes socio-political, and yet also joyful, pure-hearted and even empathetic in some odd sort of way. The NY Times has hailed her show a 2025 must see. Believe them.
