“ This character-driven comedy had me at the title and only got better from there! On the meta-level, it's a super engaging script: what is the "typical clown story?" Is this a subversion, or do we just think it is? On the technical and craft level, it's a downright hoot! The dialogue is consistently hilarious, with a few fantastic, laugh-out-loud zingers. It has great roles for an older actress and a young girl - in fact, there isn't a single small role in the play. Ultimately, it's filled with a surprising amount of pathos for a backstage comedy about clown yearning! ”
