    "Instead of pulling a quarter from behind a kid's ear, this circus clown pulls a bit of hope out of a day that seemed hopeless. A very good play for a school or youth program that needs to show hope in a wry and somewhat comic disguise for the benefit of us who don't respond to that kind of "Up With People" relentless cheerfulness. A wink, a poke in the ribs, and a leg up from Clownie might be just what is needed.

    Wasn't expected to be moved by a scene between a clown and a kid today, but here we are. Wonderful short piece of humanity here where Karp spreads a little hope and some good advice in between some very funny lines and a very funny situation. No easy feat. (Sorry.) Anyway, very enjoyable! this would be a very good addition to your ten minute festival!

    When things are tough, perhaps all you really need is a clown. Ray has been the victim of schoolyard bullying to the point that he is becoming truant. Clownie is….a clown (of course) who see through to Ray’s pain and stops to do something about it. A charming and sweetly funny short play that gets to the heart of a serious issue. Sometimes Good Samaritans wear floppy shoes.

    A charming, big-hearted two-hander about the perpetual scourge of teenage bullying, propelled by the assurance that it will someday get better. Ray and Clownie are wonderfully real characters, a troubled teen and a compassionate party clown. Their unexpected encounter plays out through pitch-perfect dialogue, witty and touching, that taps into the underlying humanity of the piece. NO SMALL FEET will be a crowd-pleaser (even if you’re scared of clowns.)
