How can an Italian resist a title with more than one Italian name? Jeromaia had been interviewed on Radio Fremantle, revealing the origin of the show (a true personal story at the time) and mentioning a clown school. He did tell the audience that it was a clown show, in the modern style. 

He certainly got lots of laughs from the audience, as well as a considerable amount of participation, not just limited to the front rows. Asking us all, "what is love?" led to more specific queries and invitations, sometimes with results that proved quite spectacular. The choices of music included his own song, possibly in a league with my own nondescript singing efforts (not all Italians can be opera stars), but it contributed a lot to the comic developments. Familiarity with the tunes and the immediate relevance of lyrics helped.

He did comment on the show being a preview, and it is possible that he may choose to modify some elements, although repetition could be a trademark of clowning. A positive comment is the lack of cheap profanity for laughs; it is classified as 'hot', but the taste is not bad. The artist has a wonderfully expressive face, possibly trying to limit his own laughter. More time should have been spent chatting with him after the show, but at FRINGE WORLD time is precious and the next performance beckoned from one of the Spiegeltents. Give Giuseppe a try, you may help his quest for love and its ingredients.
