Edinburgh Fringe
Retrospection
A retrospective no one asked for from a performance artist no one knows. Claire Woolner, LA-based absurdist comedian and award-winning studio artist, blows hard on the edges of performance art and swims into surrealist clown. Silly comedic bits, playful performance pieces and authentic breakdowns make this a work of tragicomedy at its finest.
