Perhaps you should try this:
import sys
import gi
from gi.repository import Clutter
Clutter.init(sys.argv)
label = Clutter.Text()
label.set_text("Clutter Test")
label.set_position(0, 100)
color = Clutter.Color()
color.from_string("Red")
stage = Clutter.Stage.get_default()
stage.set_color(color)
stage.add_actor(label)
stage.show_all()
Clutter.main()
that should work. You need to initialize the stage and of course you
need to run the Clutter.main() loop.
