Clowning is fun. Magic is fun. Putting the two together doubles the fun and enjoyment. In this book you will learn how to effectively combine the humor and funny antics of clowning with the thrill and enchantment of magic. This is not simply a book about clowning, nor is it just a book of comedy magic tricks. It is a guide on how to be entertainingly funny using magical effects and offbeat stunts in a clownish way. All of the tricks and gimmicks described in this book are very simple to perform and can be learned in a few minutes. Most require absolutely no manipulative or slight-of-hand skill. The entertainment comes from the way the tricks are presented and not from the tricks themselves. Subjects covered include: how to mix clowning and magic, creating laughter, working with children, comedy warm-ups, audience participation techniques, magical fun with kids, covering mistakes, clown stunts, silly close-up gags, running gags, walk-around clowning, birthday party stunts, clown magic on stage, and more. The book is loaded with hundreds of tried and tested comedy effects with dozens of complete clown magic skits and routines.

Even though I am a hospital/caring clown I found this book to be full of great ideas. Probably most helpful for anyone new to clowning. The tricks are easy and simple to perform. There are suggestions on how to combine humor and clown antics with magic when performing. Too bad this book is out-of-print.
