Clowns are back after taking a hit during the pandemic. But changes to the industry linger

Though attendees walk the halls in makeup and really big shoes with propellers on them, theconvention in Orlando, Florida isn’t much different than most conventions. Conference sessions teaching industry tricks and vendors selling gadgets — think rubber chickens and jumbo scissors — line the showroom floor.

“We went from having almost 400 shows maybe down to 20, and those were private parties where people weren’t afraid,” says Miller. Kynisha Ducre, or Daisy the Clown, specializes in making balloon animals. One small way the pandemic changed clowning for her is the tiny, red pump she pulls out of her bag to blow up a long, blue balloon that she twists into a dog.

Jackie Newton, aka Sparky Malarkey, says more clowns make sure kids know there’s a person underneath. They’ve ditched the gloves and wear less makeup.She laughs it off when asked about how Pennywise represents clowns in popular culture.

Yeah I am and justifiably so as they all seem to be Republicans these days.

Oh they are back with a vengeance

What are you talking about? Clowns ruled the world during the Panic.
