Ludus Theatrical Company

About the Company
Ludus Theatrical Company was created in 1994 by its Artistic Director, Marcel Dumont, to play with clowning, pantomime, mask, and improvisation. It was active as a troupe until 2002, and produced two plays: The Lost Wallet, about the continuos game two clowns play to distract themselves, with Fernanda Marques and Margarida de Souza, and Requiem for a Clown, about the life of a clown who lost his heart and nose for the love of a woman who betrays him, with Camila Falck, Susan Kaessinger, Karin Karlander, and Fernanda Marques; music by E. James Smith.

Marcel Dumont studied movement, improvisation, and elements of clowning with Maria Helena Lopes, a disciple of Jacques LeCoq, while studying Theatre Directing at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, in Brazil, where he worked as an actor. Mr. Dumont is also a producer of film, video, and interactive media.
