For four weeks the Brick is hosting clowns. Some wear big red noses and others appear normal. For example, Theatre Group Dzieci's Cirkus Luna! has tried-and-true tent acts, while Julie Goell's opera house charwoman gets a star turn in Carmen the Mopera. Then, James and JF consider who and what would play on the last television on Earth in Channel One. These are a few of the lovestruck, hula-hooping, spectral, and musical acts participating in the Clown Theatre Fest. Audiences too can clown around at selected cabarets and workshops. Everyone is welcome to participate in the opening night pie-in-the-face melee at the Brick, and at the closing day clown funeral procession, through the streets of Brooklyn.
