Journey For The Sun: A Sci-fi Cartoon Circus presented by Actors Gymnasium at Noyes Cultural Art Center

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...The story, which aims to please young children, adolescents, and adults, is decidedly silly-a group of adventurers must travel to the sun to "cool it off" because it's gotten too darned hot-but easily wins us over with its cool grace and constant inventiveness. Kasey Foster earns big laughs as the show's sad-sack hero, Darryl, but the real scene-stealer is a likable young Chaplinesque clown named Jean Carlo Claudio."

"..."Journey for the Sun" is a weird and fun romp of a performance piece about a lonely drive-in movie theater owner who goes into space to rescue the world from the burning sun. It features aliens, satellites and an enormous, remarkable robot puppet. Like all shows at the Actors Gymnasium, it invokes a sense of childlike wonder. It's hard not to feel joy when watching silks, juggling, tumbling and clownery."
