Before Comedy
Synopsis
Comedy Fiction. A million years ago, prehistoric clowns roamed the earth, cast out from the society of the primitive, and humorless, cave-people. They wander a bleak and threatening land until their discovery of comedy unlocks their unique potential. The clowns overcome the hostility of the cave-people by showing them that there is an option to mere survival and fear; there is silliness.
