Highest rating! "90 minutes of nonstop hilarity . . . a tour de force of physical comedy [and] a gift to the Bay Area."
—San Francisco Chronicle |
In this hilarious stage memoir filled with stupendous physical feats, Pisoni takes us under the big top with the incredible true story of growing up as the youngest member of San Francisco's Pickle Family Circus. Celebrating the complicated, no-holds-barred life of a performer, Pisoni shows off the tricks of the trade he learned from his father, Pickle cofounder Larry Pisoni. A hilarious and heartfelt event that will delight audiences of all ages, Humor Abusedazzles with unforgettable stories and mesmerizing routines—all performed by the "one-man whirlwind" (WOR Radio) Lorenzo Pisoni.
"Spellbinding and wickedly funny . . . one of the most entertaining stage shows of the year" —BeyondChron

"Delightful slapstick routines . . . [Pisoni has] killer comic timing and acrobatic prowess." —The Seattle Times
