I’ve been publishing it since 2007 on a fairly regular basis.
If you are a clown or performer that would like to be listed on the site, please fill out the form below.  In the comment area, please let me know anything you’d like me to know about your work, including your philosophy, your training, your best experience as a performer, or anything that will help me understand you.  I will write my own article about you based on the materials, and I may contact you for additional details.
I don’t promise to list everybody, but I will try!
