Synopsis Doug Francisco, the chameleon-like ring master of the Invisible circus, presents a multiphrenic one-man cabaret of stories and characters from his own adventures around the world. Delving into his past as a street performer in Europe, Francisco invokes a plethora of potent eccentrics in a variety of shady and sublime locations, from Portuguese jails, to the Moroccan mountains. He tells stories of his journeys and adventures in the pursuit of positive change and solidarity with the dream of bringing the show to the stage. This show is a medley of schizophrenic voices and faces from the past, all conversing across different chapters, the theatricality of the ringmaster contrasting with the gritty realism of the other characters as the stories and chapters of memories are presented as acts in the cabaret of life. A one-man carnival of storytelling, physical comedy and song, Doug Francisco parodies without prejudice, invoking the dreams, memories and nightmares of his own European parade. Circus Fest.
