PARIS — Celebration Barn Theater will present Broadway’s Avner “the Eccentric” Eisenberg in “Exceptions to Gravity, his newest show, onSaturday, Aug. 6.
“Exceptions to Gravity,” Avner’s newest show, defies the barriers of language and culture, and has toured across the United States and abroad. Avner weaves a spell of poetic simplicity in a show of hilarious predicaments.

Avner travels the world teaching clowning workshops. He believes in the therapeutic power of performing and is a certified hypnotist. He was recently inducted into the International Clown hall of Fame.
