Part fable, part manifesto, and part love letter to New York City’s working performers, Farewell My Fool follows JoyBoy da Clown as they spiral through an embarrassing audition that leads them to question their integrity and self esteem.

Based on true events, this physical theater performance utilizes clowning, humor, and audience participation to interrogate the legacy of exploitation in performance, the failures of ambition, respectability politics, and the power of self-realization.

Farewell my Fool originally debuted on June 12-14, 2025 at Triskleion Arts. This performance was made possible by Triskelion Artist In Residence Program and the Foundation For Contemporary Arts.
