About this experience
A final journey with joy
Clowns and funerals may initially sound contradictory to many people, particularly those who immediately picture a traditional slapstick clown. Yet there are many dignified roles in which a clown can help the audience set grief aside for a moment. The clowns often need no words. They communicate with funeral guests through gesture and expression, and, if that is what the family wants, the mood can begin to turn towards something more positive.
