About the event
A blogging dog sitter cringes out on celebrity, Slinkys, and self-promotion. A poet experiences the clownyvulnerability of falling in love. Drunk Muppets ponder the uselessness of art. A transitioning drag queen muses on being “the crazy one, the one who doesn’t give a fuck.”
From fiction that reveals the humanity beneath the smeared greasepaint to psychedelic autofiction to poetry that exposes normal folk for the sickening anomalies they are, CLOWNS will get under your skin until it liberates your own inner clown, be ita smart-ass or trickster, sad sack or buffoon.
Featuring contributors Maz Murray, Sophie Robinson and Jake Hall.
