Rachel Ho and Paul Schlesinger

Chad interviews Playspace hosts and co-creators RACHEL HO and PAUL SCHLESINGER! Rachel and Paul are two on-the-rise clowns in LA – and have built a very unique community around their weekly clown jam at The Elysian Theater in Los Angeles. We discuss their recipe for success and humble beginnings in clown.STAND UP AND CLOWN (the show) takes place last Mondays, 930pm at The Elysian Theater! The next show is on October 30th (it’s a Halloween show!) – already signed on for this one are Cameron Esposito, Jon Daly and Danielle Perez!10/30: https://tinyurl.com/ydppu6tdYou can also see Chad directing this week at BORN FROM NOTHING – a three-day incubator to create a fully-devised clown mask show. This is a Clown Zoo and Friends production, which means great names from the original cast and some new friends. Come every night and see an entire show created for a big Saturday debut.USE THE CODE “ZOO” FOR DISCOUNTS ON 10/19 and 10/2010/19: https://www.elysiantheater.com/shows/clownzoo10192310/20: https://www.elysiantheater.com/shows/clownzoo10202310/21: https://www.elysiantheater.com/shows/clownzoo102123FOLLOW PLAYSPACE ON IG!IG: @__playspace__Here’s Chad’s new substack!
