FOOL EXPOSURE

About Me


(www.rumpel.com.au)World renowned jester has delighted audiences around the globe performing shows lasting up to 24 & 25 hrs, from kindergartens, prisons, zoos, outdoor festivals, war-zones, European castles, indoor theatre shows & tv.Crikey! Born on Mother's Day (true fact), a bit of a wild card from an early age really, seem to have lived the fool's journey by Murphy's Law (half the time), but at least it's got me around the planet. Been a bit of a topsy-turvy higgledy piggledy ride, but what the heck, the show must go on! Humour is my saviour, living out my dreams by bringing more healthy laughter into the world. It's not an easy gig being a fool, but someone's got to do it!Currently the 'Fool' in the Beatles/Cirque Du Soleil show called 'Love' in Las Vegas. Not a bad transition from jester to fool. Maybe i'm a fool's fool, as i am a fool & play the 'Fool' also?I think the 'Question Mark' is perhaps the greatest symbol of all.P.S. Crikey!
