I recently had the privilege to work with two outstanding people. Richard Ellis and Julie Pasqual of Big Apple Circus. They are professional clowns who give some of their time entertaining sick children in hospitals. It takes a special talent to enter a room of a child who has been severely burned or with cancer and to know how far you can go and where the boundaries are. It was incredible to see them in action. Not only are they funny and very entertaining, they really have great awareness of every situation. The patients absolutely loved their visit and of course being the stranger in the room taking photos, I was the brunt of many of theirs stunts and gags. Felt like a normal day!
