Actor
Fyodor Makarov
My name is Fyodor Makarov. I am a clown. I dreamt about the world of clowns since my childhood, and even tried to enter the State Circus School at the age of 7. My dream came true when I found myself performing on stage of Slava's Snowshow, an amazing artistic, theatrical and spiritual universe, that became my traveling home for over a decade. Clown theatre has since became my confirmed profession. I have created and co-directed a dozen of shows, some of them have been toured the world extensively until the recent pandemic. My current theater group is called DAVAI, we are a trio of Russian speaking Israelis (although we don't speak on stage) and it looks like we are going to stick together for quite a while.
