Dimitri the Clown



Dimitri is an "eternal searcher continually in pursuit of happiness, joy and innocence, a figure who, if the truth were a flower, would strongly resemble a collector of herbs" (Dimitri on Dimitri, on Dimitri's web site). Sadly, Swiss Mr. won't pay out the franchi for me to see Ticino's most famous son, so I can only look at the posters around town and wistfully imagine how happy, joyful, and innocent I would feel at his show.

The true reason your Mr. wont let you visit is his deep resentment of my success. Swiss Ms., come to the Dimitri Theatre, and I shall give you a private show!
