CLOWN ALLEY: Clown College Auditions 7/8/82


Master Clown Glen "Frosty" Little and Blue Unit Boss Clown Tom Parrish on July 8, 1982 holding Clown College auditions at the Tucson Community Center to find out if the wannabees have what it takes to wear the big shoes.

The would-be clowns were asked to transform themselves into lawn mowers, vacuum cleaners and hair dryers. They also had to imitate the road clowns' gag, which involved a giant sandwich and some pepper. Apparently there is no such thing as a slow-paced circus clown audition — the entire process took less than an hour.

I auditioned in Madison Square Garden and there were over 75 appilcants at that audition. We had to have it held in 2 rings and most of the clown alley worked in helping audition us. It took over 2 hours to get through the entire process.
