"Suffer the sorry, old clown who has lost his crowd of children. Help resuscitate him with your rapture, laughter, contempt and scorn. Delight in a night of music, magic, pain and suffering. Come see Morgan’s Return!"

In what promised to be an amazing, edgy performance of gruesome clown comedy, Robert Morgan brings the first performance of this new play, featuring his much beloved clown, Morgan, to Whitehorse. Bring your friends but not your children!

Morgan is a former, faded children’s clown who finds himself in an unfamiliar environment, and very strangely dressed - in a tuxedo. Is he at a birthday or a funeral? Is it his or someone else’s?

Witness Morgan attempt at a hilarious, death-defying shuffle from the tomb. Watch the failure of his capacities. Spur him on to remember something …anything.

Help him find his pills.
Fetch his cane.
Give the poor bastard something to cling to!
