Synopsis                                                                                    

Ever thought what a clown does when he is depressed?
It sure is tough being a clown.
Here is one who hasn’t stopped crying for days..
And he has plenty of reasons for it.
The one he loved the most has left him and gone away… for good.
And now he has NOTHING.
Then, he is not getting any younger. In fact- he is old.
But more than anything else, he is depressed because he has been
forced to perform this play.
He wasn’t supposed to play it tonight but circumstances have forced him
to do this play about a king and his daughters..
written by, what’s his name- the great English writer,
you know, bald.. bearded- who says “thee-thou-thy”, you know..
That guy, whats-his-name, “the show must go on..” guy;
You know, the 16th century English writer.. oh well.
The clown is now in a spot. He must perform.
No wonder he is depressed!
