Honeybuns, who sometimes bills themselves as ‘The World’s Greatest Mime,’ is a visceral and hilarious theatrical event. 

To share the room with the gigantic bright yellow entity known simply as Honeybuns is to experience a highly physical, interactive piece of performance art that has impressions of post modern clown, crowd work, and electro shock treatment. Honeybuns has performed all over including NYC, Chicago, LA, Austin, Moscow, and Ireland.

“This show will leave a strange sticky taste of surreal in your mouth.” – New City
“an organic, quintessential storefront experience” 
“nothing short of a gift” – The Chicago Reader
