Clownbaret comes to the Taganana Festival to remind us that simplicity is the key to pure humour. With their classic clown acts, they will make young and old alike laugh. An essential part of the Canary Islands that could not be missing from the programme.

Brian Rodríguez directs this clown company with 22 years of experience, sharing laughter and emotions on multiple stages around the world. In this show, accompanied by Yiyolo Stratto, they revisit some of their funniest family gags in celebration of their birthday. The company's clowns transform themselves in front of the audience and the crazy celebration begins, which, like any birthday, would not be complete without guests and cake.

If you’re already familiar with him, you won’t be surprised that we’ve booked him. Fer Catastrofer wins over audiences with his self-assurance, his wit and a unique take on the art of clowning. With him on board, laughter is guaranteed at the Taganana Festival.

Fer Catastrofer presents PUNCH!, a funny, original and cheeky show that breathes new life into the classic spirit of the clown. A mischievous revival, full of wit and intelligent humour, where improvisation and direct interaction with the audience take centre stage.

Without the need for elaborate stage effects, PUNCH! invites us to step into a poetic, absurd and deeply human world. A space where the audience isn’t just watching: they participate, get involved and end up playing an essential part in a story that’s as funny as it is unpredictable.

Through absurd situations, power struggles, petty everyday mischief and moments of genuine tenderness, Fer Catastrofer displays a relatable and brilliant sense of humour, always under the irreverent gaze of the clown, the first to laugh at himself.

PUNCH! is a direct hit against apathy. A stunning show—the sort you don’t see anymore—capable of provoking roars of laughter and leaving you with a smile long after the performance has ended.

It is an honour to welcome the transmission of culture and identity through storytelling, to help children and families in general to foster imagination and share stories orally.
