Clown

Un clown est un artiste comique qui utilise des slapstick ou des types similaires d'humour physique, souvent dans un style mime. Les clowns ont une tradition variée avec des variations importantes de costumes et de performances. Les clowns les plus reconnaissables sont ceux qui portent couramment des costumes étranges avec un maquillage distinctif, des perruques colorées, des chaussures exagérées et des vêtements colorés. Leur style de divertissement est généralement conçu pour divertir de grand public, surtout à distance. Les clowns sont le plus souvent associés au cirque où ils ont joué un rôle comique en reliant d'autres actes de cirque depuis la fin du 18ème siècle. Beaucoup de clowns de cirque sont devenus bien connus et sont un acte de cirque clé à part entière. Le premier rôle dominant du clown a été dépeint par Joseph Grimaldi. Au début des années 1800, il a élargi le rôle de Clown dans l'harlequinade qui faisait partie des pantomimes britanniques, notamment au Théâtre Royal, à Drury Lane et aux théâtres Sadler's Wells et Covent Garden.

A clown is a comic performer who employs slapstick or similar types of physical humour, often in a mime style. Clowns have a varied tradition with significant variations in costume and performance. The most recognisable clowns are those that commonly wear outlandish costumes featuring distinctive makeup, colourful wigs, exaggerated footwear, and colourful clothing. Their entertainment style is generally designed to entertain large audiences, especially at a distance. Clowns are most often associated with the circus where they have performed a comedic role linking other acts in the circus performance since the late 18th century. Many circus clowns have become well known and are a key circus act in their own right. The first mainstream clown role was portrayed by Joseph Grimaldi. In the early 1800s, he expanded the role of Clown in the harlequinade that formed part of British pantomimes, notably at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane and the Sadler's Wells and Covent Garden theatres.

10

Robert Buckley

I remember having friends in high school that did the theater department stuff, and I always wanted to try it but never had the guts to. I was the class clown but could never really build up the courage to try it. I took one acting class and really enjoyed it.
