Description

From ancient Egypt to the modern-day circus, the role of the clown can be traced throughout history.

But how much do you really know about the profession that takes comedy very seriously?

This fascinating book takes the reader on a journey through the ages, explaining how clowns such as the whiteface and auguste came to be.

You'll read about history's best-loved performers such as Joseph Grimaldi, the father of modern clowning, and learn about the origin of terms used today such as the 'clown alley'.

If you want to know why blue make-up is supposed to bring bad luck, and who the literary world's first ever killer clown was, then this is the book for you.
