An immersive clown adventure comedy show where the troupe serves a meal while performing for the audience.
Clown Carbonara is bringing Pantalone's to ColdTowne Theater on Sunday, September 6, as part of a run of Sunday shows throughout September. It's an immersive clown adventure that puts you inside the story: you're a hungry customer at the company's restaurant on the night a very important food critic is in attendance. The troupe describes it as a show that makes you laugh with the clowns, laugh at them, and sends you off with a heart full of clown nonsense.
ColdTowne is a long-standing fixture of Austin's comedy scene, known for hosting improv, sketch, and stand-up. Over the years it's picked up several Best of Austin Awards, including Readers Poll Best Comedy Troupe in 2007 and Best Improv Group in 2006, so it's a familiar spot for anyone who follows the city's comedy circuit.
Pantalone's is billed as an immersive experience, which means you're not just watching from a seat—you're part of the restaurant's dining room while the chaos unfolds around you. The premise centers on that high-stakes night with the food critic, and the comedy comes from the clowns trying to handle the pressure. The troupe describes the whole thing as a way to laugh with the clowns and at them in equal measure.
