Welcome Benny. You've come to the right place. Lots of fun and interaction here. Clean silly stuff as well as lots of discussion. Tell us a little about yourself. We'll promise to laugh...not too much

Hmm... A bit about myself.

I suppose I would consider my self a magician by trade having been performing for friends and family for nearly 20 years.

Early last year I quit my day job to finally follow my heart and do what I loved the most which was amazing people.

About 8 months ago I joined an agency who asked if I would do clown. Being broke and in desperate need of work I said yes. Since then I have hardly looked back. I love the freedom that performing in clown offers.

Since that day I have read every book on the topic I can get my hands, started taking lessons in mime and physical comedy, joined a juggle club, I practice and dream about ballooning every day and am thoroughly loving this entirely new dimension to performing I never knew about.

Well that is about me in a nutshell. "No no..... This is me in a nutshell. Look I am in a nutshell...I can't get out of this huge nut" - Austin Powers
