A feather duster stikes me as one of those props like a rubber chicken or a squeaky ball where the question is not "What can I do with this?" but "What CAN'T I do with this?"

Juggling and balancing come immediately to mind. Dusting things of cousres espescially things that shouldn't be dusted. Play darts. get a head band and you can make a hat. You can use it to imitate numeorus birds. Make it a microphone, a flower (full of dust to you cough and snezze every time you "smell' it, a boat paddle, a sword, a tickle "torture" device, a conductor baton, guitar or uke, a drum stick, badmitton birdie and on and on and on. Get two, and you can do a vegas fan dance. All the othe ideas are good to!

Don't limit yourself when thinking of ideas. Clowns are not limited by reality or sensibilty or logic. Let your impluses and imagination run wild. Then try things out and see what the reaction is. Then narrow down.
