Hilary Chaplain offer’s a unique series of short comic pieces that have delighted audiences in Variety Shows, Galas, Clubs and Corporate events. The first three pieces are a series and are best presented as such within the context of a mixed program. However, all four can be presented together or individually and can be performed on any stage. Each one highlights a professional artist attempting to perform her work when she is obstructed by mishaps that nearly overwhelm her. The musician, actress, singer and circus artist struggle to maintain her dignity and complete her performance. Think of a female Sid Caesar/George Carl.
“Chaplain manages
to go beyond mere slapstick and develops a sympathetic character that the audience can latch on to.“
“It's a piece on human condition . . . It's about my struggle maintaining my dignity, and being taken seriously as a woman, while stumbling upon minor stumbling blocks and always coming out the winner.“
