    Even killer clowns need therapy appointments. This absurd yet relatable ten-minute play gives us something to relate to in terms of pre- and post-pandemic: what we're missing out on, what's changed, and maybe what is hard to get back to. Rachael Carnes's witty dialogue and humor make this a wonderful play to read and to stage. It was a pleasure to include it in some scripts literary magazine Issue 5!

    Light, quick, and strangely relatable, underneath this play's humorous antics is a tangible study on life before and during Coronavirus; it allows for cathartic laughter at the absurdity within the play, as well as a moment of self-reflection in pre- and post-pandemic habits, desires, and sanity.

    HAHAHAHAHA! Okay, I will admit, the idea of a killer clown that can knit a sweater is high on the anxiety list, but everything will be fine as long as you funnel it through Racheal Carnes sensitivities. I chuckled throughout this delightful little piece of EC-Comic inspired whimsy. I'd love to see a follow up after the vacation to France...

    Throughout the midst of this COVID-19 pandemic, no one has paused to think of the effect upon our evil clown population. Until now. Larry's trying to keep it together, despite the cancellation of his trip to Paris ("Je suis Larry et je suis une shape-shifting clown monster."), he's even taken up knitting!
    Fortunately, Larry has Dee, his therapist. And fortunately, we have Carnes to deliver this delightfully off-kilter short comedy that did indeed make me feel the tiniest bit better about my own COVID ennui.
    Rich and absurd. Someone needs to put together an evil clown festival to stage this.
