CLOWNS WITHOUT BORDER BAHAMA RELIEF TOUR, #2 THURSDAY 12/19 AFTERNOON
We've been in Freeport for a week. Since we've been here, we were able to make some connections in this community. One day we were riding to a show in the back of a truck. As we traveled down the road, we passed a woman who saw us perform in a medical clinic a few days ago. She waved at us and said," Thank you for making me laugh," as we drove away.
A'riah, a woman who saw us in our first show at the Port Lucaya Marketplace show, reached out to us. She said, "We had a great time on Sunday Evening. Very cute show. My son wants to see it again, and he enjoyed volunteering". We told her that we would be doing a second show at the marketplace later that week. She wanted to make sure she and her son had the opportunity to see us in our final show at the marketplace.
Unfortunately, it rained all day before the show. The rain scared a lot of people away from the outdoor market. That said, it was a real delight to see that we had some followers who came to see the show….in the rain.
A'riah's son got to be in the show again. This time I taught him the balancing routine I did in the show. I held the chair on his chill as HE "balanced" it.
There was another mother who specifically came to the show in the rain at the Port Lucaya Marketplace. Her daughter was at the International school show yesterday, and she wanted to see us again, This young girl remembered one of the clown routines we did. She asked if she could perform it. We quizzed her to make sure she knew how the clown routine worked. She understood this routine well enough to do it. Leora graciously stepped aside and let her do her part. Here is some of that routine.
