we keep clowning

By sabouny | clown in chief

Indeed we do. 

let me ask you:

What happens when you take a red nose into a refugee camp, a war zone, or a street corner full of honking cars and very grumpy faces?

You get confused looks, giggles, occasionally a tomato to the face—but mostly, you get connection, empathy, and hope.

At Clown Me In, we don't just make people laugh (though we're excellent at that). We use art, performance, and play to help people process pain, find joy amid chaos, and maybe—just maybe—change their communities, one laugh at a time. That's what we have been doing for the last few months and that's exactly what we will keep on doing in the coming months.

In May we will start a new clown lab focusing on mental health focused material for the new shows. We have tried few clown skits with displaced people in lebanon and had really positive feedback so we want to do more of that. 

Will keep you posted.

Thank you for your support
