Kraken-ka, the 1st Komodo dragon, a clown cautionary tale
Jusby shares an Indonesian Fable updated with horrors of the modern world. Kraken-ka was originally bright red with glittering ornamentation, but he could not follow the Goddess Naga's single rule: Take from the Earth only what you need.
When Jusby breaks character and shares a true life murder mystery the tone becomes anything but kid's play. This show has played during the Coho Clown Festival, the Thorpe Community Days Festival, and at the Robinwood Station in his hometown of West Linn.
An eruptive, mythic, emotionally raw act blending clown tragedy, volcanic imagery, and a Lovecraftian-meets-folkloric monster tale. Kraken-Ka is both creature and mirror — a symbolic eruption of shame, grief, power, and empathy.
Themes: chaos, release, transformation, shadow integration.
“Part clown act, part bard, funny and thought provoking. Whatever you’re expecting, it’s not that”
