| Current Image | Welcome to my website! I am BigTop the Clown. I reside in Kennewick, Washington, but travel throughout providing laughter and entertainment to audiences both young and old! I have been a clown for many years; in fact, growing up in La Canada, California I studied pantomime and stage acting. My interest in pantomime led me into clowning. I received my formal clown training from Mooseburger Clown Arts Camp. I was formerly part of the Ringling Brothers-Barnum & Bailey Red Unit Circus! You may have seen me before at the circus!
Clowns are comic performers, stereotypically characterized by their colored wigs, stylistic makeup, outlandish costumes, and unusually large footwear! Clowning, in its most basic form, can be described as one form of drama without a fourth wall ... In other words, a clown acknowledges his audience. The clown's humor today is often visual and includes many elements of physical comedy or slapstick humor.
Whether it is physical comedy, pantomime (my favorite), juggling, unicycling, or balloon sculptures, I'd love to come help you entertain your guests and audience members! I attend a lot of company picnics, grand openings, business promotions, and lots of birthday parties! I have also started teaching circus clowning to children ages 8 to 13. I'd like to show you what clowning is really about and how to get the audience involved.
