What is this? (See answer below.)

    Cindy and Jim Pelc of Just Clowning Around are experienced, quality entertainers creating a unique blend of color, comedy and magic. Our performances are educational, entertaining and fun; a winning combination that delights thousands of people every year! We learned our skills attending and sponsoring many classes and seminars. We refined our skills in private training with circus legend, Frosty Little, the only living Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Bailey Master Clown. We believe that clowning, comedy and magic are traditions; treasures to be experienced and shared.
