Behind the Spectacle: Backstage at Slava's Snowshow

Forget Bozo, Ringling Bros. and your five-year-old niece's birthday party, Slava's Snowshow, the evocative family-friendly spectacle, is a totally different kind of clowning. With its mix of painted faces, Beckettian imagery and an extensive exploration of the absurd, the theatrical blizzard has blown to Broadway just in time for the busy holiday season. We got a chance to meet the Russian performers behind the show and see them prepare for another heartwarming performance. Take a look at Slava and the gang as they don the red noses and get ready to take on some serious weather. It gives new meaning to the Great White Way.
