Created and Directed by Orlando Pabotov

An exploration of laughter featuring clowning, live music, and joy, this
high-energy, rhythmically-driven comedy piece was inspired by the creator's
nightly bedtime ritual of developing stories with his young son. The first
monologue of the show is purely written from the brain of a five year old. The
cast will perform live original music and new renditions of old favorites to
complement this hilarious journey about the power and beauty of laughter in our
lives.

The Following is an Alan Tudyk Interview:

But there's something Tudyk is doing now that he's never done before –and he
sounds thrilled about it. "I'm producing a play," he announces proudly to
several interviewers grouped around him on SUBURGATORY's high school classroom
set. "I've always wanted to do it, I've always wanted to work with my friend
Orlando Pobotoy, who's a brilliant clown. He's a teacher at NYU. He was just
involved in the production of THE CHERRY ORCHARD, that they did at CSC [Classic
Stage Company] that was amazing, with one of the best plays of the year, with
John Turturro and Dianne Wiest. Anyway, he and I are doing this play. He does
these clown shows. The last one he did was called CREATION, and it got some of
the best reviews of any play, that he wrote, and it was a single-person clown
show. It was basically the first page of the Bible, and that was what it was,
and it had very few lines. He said, `Oh, boy!' `Wow!' `No!' And it was the most
entertaining seventy minutes. So this is another original work that he has. It's
going to be three of us and one musician. And we're going to do it at La Mama
[in New York City] for eight performances only for the fiftieth anniversary of
the theatre. And it's called THAT BEAUTIFUL LAUGH. And we're starting a theatre
company."

THAT BEAUTIFUL LAUGH runs at La Mama's The Club stage this month from March 16
through March 25. For more information, go to the theatre's website, LaMama.org.
