The Flight Attendant is a contemporary clown performance about the contradictory expectations placed on being a woman. A hilariously absurd, painful, and heartbreaking journey by one clown into the core of womanhood.

Women are still expected to conform to conflicting demands and narrow ideals. The performance explores why we feel the need to make ourselves smaller, whether it is possible to fail at being a woman, and why being a woman can be so difficult.

Karkki Karo Illi’s first full-length clowning solo was born out of a profound realisation of her own sense of not belonging as a woman. Why has she always been the wrong kind of woman? What even is a woman, and is it possible to fail at womanhood?

A journey into the very heart of womanhood awaits!
