Economic Development Performing Arts HOME Today we see clowns in shopping malls handing out coupons, in stores entertaining customers, and in the streets enticing customer to come in and just look around.
Businesses are willing to pay for clowns because clowns bring in paying customers.

From Hotel Manager Marlin Kaeranen to the waiter that serves you coffee, they have become clowns. Clowning is part of their training program. They do not dress in clown face and costume when at work.
