Adelaide Fringe Review: Tchocolatl

A woman dressed as clown with a red clown nose and chocolate poured on her head smiles in surprise
A warm, funny and educational Fringe performance, Tchocolatl blends clowning, chocolate history and playful audience interaction in a show perfectly suited to young children.

By Justine Henschke 

Pa the Traveller Clown delivered a friendly, engaging and consistently funny performance that quickly won over the young audience. My three-year-old is usually very shy at first, but Pa’s warmth and playful interaction with the children soon had him confidently running up to the stage to join in.

The show cleverly combined humour with learning, exploring the history where chocolate comes from and how it is made. The audience had great fun guessing answers, directing Pa through her lively slapstick moments and watching her act our their favourite chocolate flavours with dance moves that reappeared throughout the show.

Original and educational, the performance was perfectly suited to its setting at Barossa Valley Chocolate Company, an ideal location for a post-show treat after learning a little more about where chocolate comes from and gaining a better understanding of how the chocolate we enjoy is made.

“She was magic – she opened the box again and there was chocolate in there!” – our 3 year old kiddo reviewer
