One man’s journey to realize his dreams.
From country mouse to city rat.
Into the world of clown and the thrill of success.
Along the way, a dark passenger from his past starts to take control, bringing him face to face with not only his grief and trauma, but also the luminous power of love and humility.

Clown Fish was initially developed through the Sunset Theatre’s Exploration Series through funding granted by the BC Arts Council’s Project Grant Program, and The Canada Council for the Arts’ Explore and Create Grant Program.
The inaugural workshop production was part of the Sunset Theatre’s 2022 SpeakEasy Festival with the working title Tripping Across the Finish Line.
