Here's a brief reportback from our lovely clowny tour of the west coast.

The Circus

You'll all see the content of the circus tonight, but overall we got a
lot of good feedback about the circus performance. We had fairly large
crowds in olympia, eugene, santa cruz and san francisco from 30-100
people. The audience sizes in berkeley and portland could've been
better. But in berkeley there was a lot of traffic of students passing
by who at least saw what we were doing and were intrigued/confused. In
portland, although the crowd was small, they were alomst all organizers
and expressed a lot of interest in the No Borders Camp...

Today's performance at berkeley was hot! Seriously, wow, after the cold northwest, it is like summer here. We had so much fun with our friends from SF and Santa Cruz and the music by Entartete Kunst was amazing.

So far our traveling circus has been really wonderful, if hard. We've shared our message of joyous resistance and clown love throughout the northwest, talking with people about the No Borders Camp and the many issues around migration and freedom of movement all along the way. We've shared our personal stories about borders, played out the circus of immigration and done theater of the oppressed, inviting audiences to come up and enact the change they want to see. But you can still be a part of this! Come see the circus in SF, Santa Cruz or San Diego!

Also, please help us get the word out about the circus! We're doing workshops and performing in San Francisco tomorrow night, tues, and we'd really love to share our stories and talk about the no borders camp with lots of folks, so please tell anyone you know who might be interested!!!
