Welcome to my blog!!!
I'm a children's entertainer in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. Newmarket is about 30 km north of Toronto.
In 1987, I was looking for a woodworking course at night school and stumbled upon a course called "Clowning and the Art of Balloon Sculpture" It ran for 4 Saturday mornings and was a reasonable price. It sounded intriguing so I signed up. The course was taught by Bill Linge aka "Syncro the Clown". He taught us clown make-up, costuming, basic balloon sculptures, general clown arts and more.
The former members of this course had formed "Toronto Clown Alley". I joined TCA to further my clown skills. I met Tom Kerr - a clown, magician and magic dealer. Tom taught me some basic magic tricks and sold me some props to get started.
And I was off!!!!
This blog will tell you a little about my journey as a clown and balloon entertainer.
Hope you come back and visit again.
