The Jo ker is Wild

This is the French Clow father of the clown

For a moment they have abandoned their musical instruments. There is more fun to be had as the White Clown commandeers the audience and asks them to hold up an unlit candle.

One characteristic of clowns is that they do not use a script. There are standard routines, some ver y ancient which are passed on from clown to clown.

Swiss Clown made his fortune on the Music Hall stage. In the Middle Ages comical entertainers were called by a variety of names; they were jongleurs, minstrels, oculators, fools, jesters, mummers, zanies, harlequins and buffoons.

And they are known to most of us as JOKERS and so we say THE JOKER IS WILD.

The stor y of Atlantis has always created a sense of myster y in us all. It fluctuates between fantasy, fiction and reality.

Masquerade’s 2006 Carnival presentation is a combination of all these. The stor y of Atlantis has filtered down in time through the writing of Plato, who in 370 BC was given the tale by a Greek legislator and poet known as Solon.

Skandal-us presents Havana 2006, which marks the band’s fifth year in Trinidad and Tobago’s Carnival. The inspiration behind the theme was to bring to a wider market the vast cultural and romantic influences that epitomize Havana, the capital city of Cuba

The theme paints a mosaic of L atin and Caribbean, passion and revolution, sun and sea and all the sensuality of a multi-ethnic people!

Skandal-us has made an indelible mark from its inception, as the band that revolutionized the Carnival experience and continues to offer its masqueraders an unforgettable all-inclusive package.
