I attended one of the final showings of the New York City Clown Festival this saturday and it was one of the bizarrest sights I've been privy to in a while. It was a one-clown existential pretension fest that ended with an all out homoerotic cuddle session between the clown (who was now wearing nothing but a thong and a red clown nose and was covered in some sort of white goo that he called "spell juice" and used to protect himself from monsters) and a shirtless and very flamboyant audience member while sitting in a small plastic tub. The best part was that I had a full blown clown there with me (Peter's roommate's boyfriend) who could tell me from which schools of clowning the different physical comedy moves were from.
But more importantly, I got my first check on friday and went hog wild.
Also, my class has been selected by my school to write and perform our own play. Very exciting.
