WHAT:

The Down to Clown Festival was created by Genny Yosco to add a boost of funny into that NYC "just turning into springtime but still kind of cold" air. While yes, the word "clown" is right there, we're not stuffy about it. Are you a SAD clown? A comedian? Is your show a laugh riot? Does your piece include clowning but you wouldn't specifically call yourself a clown? Are you the clown's evil counterpart, a mime? Something else? If you're unsure if your project fits the theme, just ask!

The 2022 Down to Clown Festival awards are as follows:

Nongenue - BEST SCRIPT
Sound Vomit - BEST MUSIC
Growing Pains with Jake Strong- BEST SOLO SHOW

Punchline Loading - BEST COMEDY
BURN mARALAGO- BEST OVERALL

Last year's festival ran May 12th - 29th, 2022. All in-person shows held at The Vino Theater, located at 274 Morgan Avenue, 11211. All shows were available to stream.
