The Van Gogh Shogh

On tour January 2026

“Engaging, lovable and extremely funny…inspired lunacy.” – Talkin’ Broadway

“Wild and raucous…top notch clowning and a very enjoyable night at the theater.” – Plays Unpleasant

One part deranged "Sip 'n Paint", one part karaoke night and one part Sotheby's. Performed in an actual painting studio, with 6 audience members given the chance to paint Starry Night under the tutelage of the master himself.

In The Van Gogh Shogh, Donna Oblongata uses the lens of Vincent Van Gogh's life and legacy to ask urgent questions about the nature of art, success, reproduction, and the meaning(lessness) of a creative life. 

Acclaimed performer and clown Donna Oblongata has toured internationally for over a decade, shared the stage with Mikhail Baryshnikov in Slava's Snow Show and recently sold out a run at The Brick Theater in New York with The Van Gogh Shogh.
