NIGHT 9 OF 31
Chiller Clowns
Funny first. A little chill in the makeup. The food is circus food and the fire is close.
ACCESSORIES
A small horn that is quieter than you expect. Striped socks.
DECORATIONS
Bunting, a wheel that does not spin anyone, paper tickets to nowhere.
ATMOSPHERE
Funny first. A little chill in the makeup. The food is circus food and the fire is close.
FOOD
Popcorn in paper cones, candy stripes of beet and apple, not a jump scare.
DRINK
Cherry soda, too red, served with a straight face.
MUSIC
A calliope line played slowly, then a drum that makes it dance.
ACTIVITIES
Tell one joke into the horn. If it fails, the night likes you more.
THE PARTY
The big top is the sky. Tickets are given back as confetti.
AFTER DARK
Makeup smudges. People look like themselves again and stay.
OF THIS OCTOBER
Esme’s brow is painted and her joke is terrible. Hattie bows for her. Of this October.
EVENTS
- One joke into the horn
- Paper tickets to nowhere
- Popcorn before the fire
A FRAME, IF YOU WANT ONE
You in a carnival ruff and gentle clown paint at a mountain festival, bunting and popcorn, funny not frightening, firelight, no text.
STALL
Paper ruff
Stiff, ridiculous, warm at the neck. Comes off in one tug.
