«Si hay alguien en el circo que te da la mano y se hace tu amigo, es el payaso», dice el payaso de Big Apple Circus Joel Jeske. «Los payasos se caen, así que no tenemos que hacerlo.» An ancient form of theatrics routed in physical comedy, clowning transcends language and cultural barriers by finding the absurd in the everyday. Follow clowns Brent McBeth, Joel Jeske and David Shiner through routines. Look inside Slava Polunin’s famed Snowshow and his Academy of Fools.
