JULIA MASLI is an award-winning clown from Estonia, based in London. All she wants to do is solve people’s problems and eventually win the Nobel Prize, presented to those who have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind. But this plan keeps going wrong as she continually wins prizes for comedy. Her show ‘ha ha ha ha ha ha ha’ was nominated for Edinburgh's top prize of Best Comedy Show, the SKY Arts Best Comedy Award, the Most Outstanding Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, two Helen Hayes Awards, and declared number one comedy show of the year by The Guardian—despite her serious intentions. The performances at the Baltoscandal festival are Julia's first in Estonia.
KIM NOBLE was a critically acclaimed artist and performer from London. He used to be quite good at stuff like theatre. He got an award. And he does some directing. The New York Times described him as “Annoying.” He participated in the Baltoscandal Festival in 2022 with his production “Lullaby for Scavengers”. He also performed his production “You’re Not Alone” at Kanuti Gildi SAAL in 2023. At this year’s Baltoscandal festival, he is also the dramaturg of Maike Londi’s production “My Mother’s Wealth, One Story and Three Ballads”. He is re-writing a book and recently had to move back into his mum’s flat due to financial difficulties. www.mrkimnoble.com
