La Ratatouille are one of many sets of comedic acts presented within
the Grand Tour. They are mischevous clowns, always present at the wrong
place at the wrong time. They are masters of disguise as they appear
as Hockey players, magic men, and even ecentric women! They'll even
surprise one or two with their feats of juggling.
In one tableau, La Ratatouille make their way toward centre ring in funereal
garb, bearing a coffin draped in black. Their sombre expressions break into tiny
smirks and their rigid pall-bearing formation gives way to a misshapen cluster as their
giggles crescendo into maniacal laughter - all the while ushering the coffin back
out of the tent.
