Basquette Quese
Arcata Playhouse 2018 Family Series presents French Clown Iman Lizarazu in “Basquette Quese” (Basket Case) a poetic tale about a clown trying to fall asleep. In her classic comedic battle she cooks up hilarious strategies to exhaust herself. The result is a rollicking whirlwind of bed-time antics – juggling pillow feathers – a Flamenco ballet while juggling seven rings – a pirate’s adventure atop a rola bola – and even a Tango that brings life to Max, her clothes hanger.
Iman’s performance totally mesmerizes the audience. Her world renowned physical comedy, brilliant mime, dance and juggling deliver original and invigorating entertainment for audience of all ages.
Iman Lizarazu is an Eccentric Performer, combining a variety of clowning skills into one art form. This broad palette enables her to craft little stories, create problems within those stories, and then solve the problems in unexpected, unusual, and delightful ways. She is a clown, a juggler, a visual artist, gardener, chef, and prankster. She loves the beautiful things in life and she loves bringing laughter and joy to the lives of those around her.
Now a resident of Santa Cruz, California, Iman was born in LaBourd in the Province of Soule in the Basque Country of southwest France. Iman’s family still lives in St. Jean- Pied-de-Port in Basque Navarre. She has been performing all her life, and professionally for over 20 years.
