the Way of the Showman
Philosophical and esoteric perspectives from a modern day Showman.
Each season is different in its approach. S1 is essays. S2 is one book length attempt at Understanding Showmanship, S3 is conversations with remarkable Showfolk. The brand new Season 4 explores the relationship between Showmanship and Play.
The host, Captain Frodo, internationally renowned circus performer, director, writer, husband and dad lays out, in great detail, his practical performance philosophy for performers who seek to deepen the conversation with their audiences and themselves.

25 - What is the Way? This is the Way - theWay:2
In this second trip down the Way of the Showman we will look at what the Way actually is. Right off the bat we discover that it has a kind of dual nature, which is revealed first around the fact that it is both a way to make a Living and simultaneously a Way to make a life.
We also establish that this Way is an exclusively human way. From that seemingly inane conclusion we get to the heart of what's at the foundation for every Act and every Showing and performance.
