as someone who went to clown school, I can't say that everyone there was very smart.
they had to have an intervention with the year below me because they all stopped eating solid food to do a fad diet with some kind of herbal tea.
French clown school?
No. A 3 year course at a major UK drama school but many of the tutors did lecoq, gaulier or worked with major companies: told by an idiot, Slava, Frantic, Spymonkey, LAnge Fou...
Just putting it out there - this is one of those situations where a story about the inner drama of clown school (with pictures if possible) could elevate you to an internet legend. I personally had no idea it was a multi-year process.
Joel McHale might play you in the movie adaptation. This lady could make a cameo once she’s out of prison and deported back to the US. Maybe don’t startle her on set, though.
I want to lie down on a rug in front of the fireplace and listen to your clown school tales, while you sit in a rocking chair and knit
Wouldn’t tying balloon animals be more appropriate than knitting?
Too squeaky
I bet you could do a really interesting AMA based on that experience
Maybe!
in the mean time the school I attended in name checked in this article

Another vote for Clown School AMA. I used to know a couple jugglers, they had friends who were street performers and professional clowns, always very interesting.
Dude, you're only making us more anxious for the storytelling hour
