03.09.26 - I think Bingo just taught me a new clowning technique. It's called "Throwing Winky under the bus". Granted, its a new act and all the bugs aren't worked out, but still... Poor Winky, if only HE'D been the clown that didn't talk, maybe he wouldn't have put his size 42 shoe in his mouth. This was a three ring fun time from start to finish and Dan West's characters had me chuckling throughout.

Palace intrigue in a circus tent. West's CIRCUS JERKS is an original and extremely funny short play with a thoroughly original concept, clever wordplay, and a great conclusion. Excellent work.

01/23/2026 - Funny and endearing! I love the concept, the characters, as well as the mixture of comedy and drama. Dan West has a real knack for making certain things that won't seem relatable (in this case a pair of clowns contemplating whether they'll quit the business) on the surface, relatable to any audience. Would love to see this staged. Well done!
