Ringling Bros. HOW TO! Make your Own Clown Halloween Costume!

Ringling Bros. shared this video of using thrift store finds to create a clown costume for kids.

Stand out this Halloween with a one-of-a-kind costume! We’ll show you how to transform yourself into a Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown with things you have at home and your local thrift store.

Considering these people work for the circus, the sample makeup job wasn’t all that great, but I guess it shows what parents without circus or makeup skills might do for their kids.

Ringling Bros. Clown Gag Night 2014

Ringling Bros. shared a video showing a brief taste of their Clown Gag Night…

A “gag”, sometimes referred to as a “skit” or “sketch” is a clown’s written and rehearsed performance. There were plenty of smiles and laughs at the annual Gag Night where the Ringling Bros. Clown Alley performed their newest gags for the first time in front of their fellow performers, producers & their families.

How to string a clown nose

A useful instructional video on how to string your clown nose (and avoid the use of glue). Excellent reminders on how to make a good fit and where to insert the needle.

Although I don’t use a string on my clown nose. I have used one in the past. Instead of the knots she uses in the video, I tied either a small bead or mini button on the string. Also, I used a combination of fishing line and a scrap of a 260 balloon instead of the elastic thread. The fishing line was connected to each side of the nose and was just long enough to wrap around to the side of my head. The balloon went around the back of my head. Since the balloon is wider, it is more comfortable to wear and can be easily hidden under a hat or wig.

Special Circus Bedroom

CLEVELAND, Ohio – A very lucky little girl is getting the bedroom makeover of her dreams.

Lanecia Smith, of Cleveland, has always loved the circus, and now she’ll have one of her very own to sleep in every night thanks to the Ringling Brothers and Special Spaces.

The 10-year-old has sickle-cell and has had to undergo a lot of treatments.

“They spend all this time in the hospital and in treatment centers and surrounded by things dealing with treatment, and this is a way for them to come home and have a space to themselves and it’s a special space,” said Dan DiPietro-James from Feld Entertainment.

He said they had plenty of help from local volunteers, including some employees from the “Q” Arena and a few members of the Cleveland Gladiators.

Lanecia wasn’t home during any of the remodeling. She spent the day getting pampered. She went out to lunch with her grandma and sister, and then got her face painted like a clown, by a clown from the circus.

While that was happening, crews were hard at work. They painted her room, put in new furniture and decorated, too.

When they were done, it was time for the big reveal. Lanecia showed up in a limo and was escorted into her home with the Ring Master.

“They did a good job,” she said with a big smile on her face.

Her grandma, Carol Byers, has been taking care of Lanecia since she was three days old and said this means so much to her.

“She’s been through a lot of pain crisis. She’s has three surgeries and she just recently had a surgery where she had her gallbladder removed, but she’s a trooper,” she said.

The Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus is in town at the “Q” Arena all week long.
