Content Advice
Cryogenically frozen by her agent decades ago and thawed out for one last shot at stardom, telenovela-star-turned-clown Maya Ricote emerges ready to melt hearts, break contracts, and to cry on cue.
A Latin soap-opera-meets-camp clown musical about feminine idealisation and breaking out to feel free at last!
‘Screamingly funny. Ay Am is as dramatic, passionate and silly as the best’
The New York Times
Directed, co-created and with original songs by Dan Lees

“Wonderfully performed clowning”
