Clown Olympics

October 19, 2007

Lets give a tip of the hat to Chris and Amanda (Monday Night Downtown Clown) for organizing a new and hopefully regular event at the Clown Theatre Festival. It was silly and taken very serious by all participants. The judges, Hovey, Mark and Deborah—(Deborah who was bribed) and advertised that fact that she was willing to be bribed and thank you, one clown did bribe her with a dollar and he got a score of 11 points out of a maximum of 10 point. Of course he dissevered at least +3 point for taking advantage of bribing a judge. Lot of fun acts on all levels – judges were booed and prized, as were the clowns. It would have been nice to see more people in slapstick; one of the highlights for me was the swimming in the kiddy pool. My favorite part was The Gold Metal Winners who tied for the Gold Metal swimming in the kiddy pool they deserved to win. They used the water well and with theatrics’ and drama – we has some highlights of true Clown Theatre here.

On with the festival…
