It turns out that the history of clowns is huge and nuanced, and Alix may have bit off… well, more than she was expecting to bite. We’re finishing up Victorian Europe with a few legitimately disturbing fictional stories. Then we cross the pond and discuss the history of a few places where clowns are likely to congregate. Freak shows, Circuses, and Carnivals. It’s a little light, a little dark, and as usual: It’s complicated.
