Apchee By Losha Gavrielov
This is a play about a day in the life of a clown with a cold.
An important phone call urges the clown to leave his house in order to try to catch a very big fish. In spite of the surprising rain, the clown decides that this is too big of an opportunity to miss and as a result, hurries to leave the house and as a result forgets to wear his shoes which makes for an uncomfortable moment when he steps in a puddle.
The first sneeze doesn’t take too long to come after the puddle incident, and may other sneezes follow.
Frustrated, sick and sneezy, the clown stays at home ensconsed in self-pitty about the fishing rod that will not be put to use today. The clown then decides to heal himself and not to give in to self-pitty and in a whimsical way he concocts himself a miracle elixir and learns to get over his hardships all on his own.
