Fully illustrated throughout, it reveals step-by-step the secrets of Slapstick, Timing & Takes, and Juggling. Develop your own oddball walk, swallow chair legs--you'll always have a stunt up your sleeve. 72,000 copies in print.

About the Author:
Slip into your own red snooter. Now you're a Joey! Make the faces, walk the walks (there's nothing like the feel of 36 inches of shoe leather on your feet). Learn the Spring-Loaded Hat Trick, the Five Great Handshakes, the Bouncing Hankie, "Sword" Swallowing, Clown Levitation. Build a character-the hobo, buffo, cutup, or wag. Hone your new skills: balancing, juggling, slapstick, pie-tossing, and flea circus ringmaster. Plus: the "Crossbow" Violin, Gag Bowling Ball, Stethoscope Plunger, and other great props. Because now you don't have to be afraid to make a fool of yourself-that's the whole point!
Turk Pipkin lives in Austin, Texas with his wife and children. He is author of seven books, including the novel Fast Greens, and is a contributing editor for Texas Monthly. He has written for magazines, television, and film.
