Richard Pochinko (1946-89) played a pioneering role in North American clown theatre through the creation of an original pedagogy synthesizing modern European and indigenous Native American techniques.
It's an interesting look at a different way to clown, though through theatre. I guess I expected more and apparently you have to take a class in it to really appreciate it, I have it on kindle because I did not feel the need to pay too much for something I might not actually enjoy.
If you are interested in clowning though I would seriously consider reading it as some information and a different perspective is nice to have. I also very much enjoyed the chapters dealing with first nation clowning, first nation healing and the ceremony.
