My first on-stage clown performance on Sunday went really really well! Here's one of my rehearsal streams I did to prepare. The live show ended up snappier and way more chaotic but I loved the emergent narrative that appeared during practice :)

I did a bit of experimental writing, using the same methods as my clown/fooling livestreams to write short stories.
I really like what came out of it - definitely feels like the start of something interesting :)
Follow me over the rainbow on a new musical adventure tomorrow! 🌈

Let's write The Wizard of Oz as an improvised Twitch musical! Type into chat to voice the cast and I'll bring them to life through the power of song! 😄🎶

Next interactive stream is this Sunday 4pm - let's make Sherlock Holmes the musical!
I'll play both Holmes and Watson, and you supply the mysteries for me to solve through the medium of song! 🎶

Testing all my kit ready for MAGFest 😀 Showing the Magic Box and the Book Ritual, speaking on a panel and hosting the Crowd Creativity Show.
I feel like an old-timey showman rolling into town with his bag of tricks 😄
