The Magical Exploding Boy
The Magical Exploding Boy is a series of vignettes ranging from stylized physical comedy to live action cartoon. From a child with mind control powers, to an amoeba struggling for life, to a man cast helplessly adrift in outer space, The Magical Exploding Boy morphs between alternate personas and transform his environment to present this darkly humorous collection of original stories.
Evans has developed a distinctive style of performance that combines his twisted humor with mimetic techniques, intense clowning, and original sound.
