Calling All Creative Types -- Artists, Class Clowns, Performers, Goofballs, Entertainers...
Have you ever dreamed of escaping the predictability of the 'real world' to become a live-in-the-moment performer in order to express your creative side? Do you enjoy making people laugh? Then you'll be delighted by this exciting new opportunity during the 2008 Rose Festival!
The Portland Rose Festival is hosting the inaugural Character Clown Corps for 'everyday Portlanders' to learn how to become a professional entertainer -- and be a participant in the world-renowned Grand Floral Parade!
Participants will train and perform with an avant-garde clown professional, receive a makeup kit and costume and develop their very own clown character.
Join the circus at the Rose Festival. It's close to home -- so you can keep your day job while living your fantasy of joining a 'cirque style' clown troupe!
The Character Clown Corps workshop will be led by world renowned physical comedian and professional clown, Angel Ocasio, a graduate of Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus' clown college. You can visit Angel's website here: AngelOcasio.Com
Applications are closed for 2008. Check back for next year!
