this is my attempt at describing the Circus Of Death And Funny Things, a company of performers that is actually sort of a performance art philosophy, or maybe it's both things at the same time..


CODAFT



this tent is a woven paradox
much like we, who call it home

we are more fictional than "god"
more real than the dirt beneath your feet
like a sharpened tongue, a two-edged sword
a whispering monk, and a screaming horde

we are many and few
ancient and brand new

in our company
you will see great tragedy
the finest comedy
and graceful elvish beauty

sooner or later
you will find us in a reality near you
and you shall all be welcome

in the Circus Of Death And Funny Things
