More great photos just arrived from the Billy Vaughn Archives, these are of Billy and Mike performing the Watch Repair Gag on Vidbel's Olde Tyme Circus.
Vidbel's is rumored to be returning to the road this fall.
A classic Clown College era teaching gag, it showed new clowns simple structure, how comedy works in 3's and the importance of a big visual ending, or blow-off. Rarely was it done in performance when I was on the road with Ringling, but in the hands of funny clowns like Billy & Mike it came to life.
Pat,
ReplyDeleteI'd like to know more about this skit.
Looks to be VERY funny!
