He Who Gets Slapped
Columbia College Chicago
72 E. 11th St. Chicago
When life gets difficult, Paul Beaumont responds to betrayal and despair by slamming the door on a life of culture and science and running away….to join the circus! In a provincial French town in the early 19th century, Beaumont is re-incarnated as HE WHO GETS SLAPPED, a clown who can endure 100 slaps in the face, and have the audiences begging for more. However, Paul’s sad past comes back to haunt him, and new entanglements bring tragedy to the family of “artistes” that have made him one of their own among the aerialists, lion tamers and stunt people of this mesmerizing one-ring circus.
