Infinite variations on a theme, Iconic, wax lyrical and on and on. All good phrases to describe Rumpelstiltskin, a character created by Jolly Goodfellow (his reel nam...hehe). This showreel filmed in 1996 and now remastered was an opportunity I couldnt pass up. A glimspe at the hilarity and improvised character that is Rumplestilskin. Famous in the festival scene for his marathon nonstop performances and his most eccentric and authentic Fool. The first time I saw Rumplestiltskin was at the Maleny Folk Festival Australia, circa 1992 (now the Woodford Folk Festival) where he performed for aprox 16hrs. He has been known to go for more than 24hrs without a break. e.g. watch THE GREATEST 24 HOUR ONE MAN SHOW ON EARTH? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZUJvi_vjwg Performing with Cirque Du Soleil in recent years and now currently roaming the American landscape. The scene from Spirits of the Carnival is used without kind permission or any other kind of permission so thanks very much to Paper Bark Films for that. ... Distributed by Tubemogul.
