's Circus Amok]]Clowns are comic performers, stereotypically characterized
by their colored wigs, stylistic makeup, outlandish costumes, and unusually
large footwear.Clowning, in its most basic form, can be described as one
form of drama without a fourth wall, however there are other types of drama
that are lacking the element of a fourth wall as well. In other words, a
clown acknowledges his audience. The clown's humor today is often visual
and includes many elements of physical comedy or slapstick humor.
Clowns spread in cultures of any time and place, because they meet some
deeply rooted needs in humanity: violation of taboos, the mockery of sacred
and profane authorities and symbols, reversal of language and action, and a
ubiquitous obscenity.Peter Ludwig Berger Redeeming Laughter: The Comic
Dimension of Human Experience (1997) p.78 An interesting example can be
found in the Native American clown societies.
