Evocative
but empty. This
describes the abandoned pair of over-sized, fire engine red clown shoes laying
in the middle of the convergence-continuum performance space, as well as the
world premiere production of local playwright Christopher Johnston's “Selfies at
the Clown Motel” taking place around them.

Selfies at the Clown Motel is a difficult play to sit through. It’s lack of focus, purpose, even with

Convergence-Continuum
bills itself as theater that opens into unknown territory by breaking down the
fourth wall. With its intimate seating (set
in some cases inches from the action) you feel more a part of the play than a
bystander. At the end of this work you
may come to realize that we are all Bozos on this bus.

What we are left with is a middle-aged male fantasy of the hetero variety (holed up in a motel in the middle of nowhere with a girl who can put her foot behind her ear – right on, brother!), uncomfortably stretched over two acts like skin in a face lift.
