Clowns
from The StickyBeak
The inspiration behind today’s episode is a bit strange actually. I’ve been working at this amazing therapeutic school in London, and there’s this park nearby.. which was once a grave yard. And there lies a very famous pantomime clown named – Joseph Grimaldi. He passed away in 1837, but was the most popular English entertainer of the Regency era. As a tribute they put in this interactive installation where you can actually dance on his grave – it’s a bit dark, but I really love it. And it got me thinking, because I don’t really know much about clowns – well until now..
