Forget Me Not
By Donald Hutera for The Times


A FEW seasons ago the alternative clown, circus and street performer Paka presented a piece called The Singularity at this same venue. The production, I recall, was shambolic but hugely ambitious and inventive. He and a pack of colleagues are at it again in Forget Me Not.
