Circus Lolo is a life-size, live-action cartoon parody of a circus.
Circus Lolo is a zany comedy performance combining sly sensibility with nonsensical slapstick fun.
Dozens of outrageous characters, in ridiculous costumes, perform an unusual array of fantastic, imagined circus acts.
The madness is facilitated by Crescendo, the Ringmaster, who delivers a non-stop patter of theatrical nuance, crafty alliteration, razor-sharp wit, and well-aged shtick.
RINGMASTER
Crescendo
Upon graduation from the Greater Wisconsin School of Cheese, he followed his dream and headed to Califrisco. After a long career as junior bell hop, he retired from the Mandarin Hotel taking only his desk bells and a pair of well-used chopsticks.
THE WORLD'S STRONGEST BUTTERFLY
Big Bruisin' Bubba Butterfly
It took many lonely hours in the gym, but it was worth it. Be amazed at the highly buffed result. For an extroverted invertebrate, he's astoundingly herculean!
THE RAT MAN FOR THE RAT JOB
Gus the Rat
Gus is our super-duper superintendent. When he's not in the gym, or the lab, or practicing his pi-rat pose, Gus helps the circus with any task requiring a ladder.
PROFESSIONAL BEACHCOMBER
Unkl Willie
There's a lot to be learned here at Circus Lolo. Our own Unkl Willie has cracked the code on how to make a living here on Maui — without giving up any beach time.
UNRELIABLE AND OFTEN BLURRY
Sasquatch?
Fingers crossed he'll appear again for your show, but last time he called in sick, he came back quite tanned. Just sayin'.
OF COURSE THERE'S A CHICKEN
Rudy McRooster
Of course there's a chicken. How do you not have a chicken? Seriously — we want to know how you get rid of this guy. He's not without charm, but he's a relentless prankster (and he sheds).
THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL
Elvis!
We'll give you a few minutes to go ask your parents who Elvis is. For those of you in the know, this pelvis swiveler will leave you breathless, and wondering, "Will he share his diet secrets?"
UNDERWATER PUGILIST
Kid Mahi
The number one contender. It is said he fights just like Tyson. No, not Mike Tyson — a Tyson brand fully cooked honey BBQ flavored chicken strip.
METHODICAL MAESTRO
Henry Honu
Circus Lolo is proud to present our perfectly practiced percussionist. Henry will astound you with his precise performance of Symphony No. 6 in B Minor, Op. 74 "Pathetique" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
No other Maui-based circus includes a free luau, a guaranteed humpback whale sighting, or the very strong possibility of an appearance from Sasquatch!
Think "Saturday Night Live" meets Saturday morning cartoons, with some carrot sprinkled on top.
Think the funny pages, written by Oscar Wilde, as an animated sitcom, dipped in Maui juju.
Think of an actual circus. Now clear your mind. Circus Lolo is like nothing else ever!
