Click!

The story of Click! follows a Clown who finds himself in a strange waiting room between worlds. We do not know whether he is on Earth, in heaven, or dreaming. Every attempt to understand his surroundings triggers the sound of a remote control: click! The world freezes, turns upside down, or transforms. In ever-changing versions of reality, the Clown encounters different characters: a mysterious hostess, an angel, and a guitarist/conman/father. He climbs toward heaven, falls, meets his father, loses faith in honesty, juggles, plays, sings, argues, and searches for a way out. When he finally finds one, he realizes that invisible walls surround him — perhaps real, perhaps of his own making.

The performance is rooted in the legacy of commedia dell’arte, the integration of circus disciplines, and the intertwining of a dramatic narrative with chaotic, spontaneous moments of improvisation. These foundations are further deepened through a dramaturgical concept based on the tension between structured comic routines and the unpredictability of live performance. The audience takes on the role of an active co-creator, making each performance unique and unrepeatable.

Zavod Bufeto is Slovenia’s first professional organisation dedicated to creating and developing clown and circus theatre and contemporary circus. Its core activities include producing original performances and co-productions, organising Klovnbuf—the international festival of contemporary clowning and circus—and running its own training programme, Bufeto Laboratory, for young professionals, alongside educational and creative programmes for children and young people.

Regular collaborations with Slovenian and international theatre institutions, partners and individual artists foster the exchange of knowledge and keep the organisation engaged with the latest developments in contemporary circus arts. Alongside its co-founders Ravil and Natalia Sultanova, graduates of the Moscow academy of circus arts and recipients of the Župančič Award, Bufeto brings together established professional and amateur artists of all generations.
