Clowns without Borders in Serbia refugee camps

March 8th, Serbia – #balkan road-

That day, we took the ferry, then the dirt road, then drove for couple more hours to get to a forest where some young and older men have spent the last months or year or two of their lives trying to cross the borders! we performed in the middle of nowhere, in a forest, under the roof of an abandoned building where these guys spend their nights when it is cold!

on the way out, I was clowning around and asked one guy for his papers!
” which ones? would you like my serbian passport? my Bulgarian one? or my Afghani one? I have all of them scanned and ready!! he replied with a smile on his face and a lot of anger and sadness in his eyes.

A quick follow up to the March 5th post.

Apparently, we got a good reputation in the #balkans and we received a last minute permit to perform at the Subotica camp.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
I didn’t even have to come up with an undercover clown costume.

Check the video to see Aya’s reaction when she saw the picture of her best friend from the other camp!
During the show, and before I showed her anything or even knew which one she was, she volunteered to come on stage and play with me. She looked at me and introduced herself ” hello, my name is Aya”!!!!
SERIOUSLY?!!!!!

I think we should give the clowns more missions in this world!
