Since Philly’s diagnosis as “a national center for clowns.” (Billy Penn, Sept. 2023), we have felt called to bring clowns together to perform, to connect, to be silly in front of a live audience! We have been hosting monthly Clown Slams throughout Philly and excited to bring the slam to Fringe!
Studio 34 is West Philly’s Fringe Hub and a mixed-use yoga/healing/arts spot all year round! Named for the trolley that stops out front, we host art, comedy, dance, drag, music, poetry, puppetry and theatre in our gallery, lounge, and studio spaces, as well as
holistic services, 30+ weekly classes, and a wide array of community happenings. Our 2025 Fringe roster features dozens of our favorite artists from all over Philly and around the country, ready to trancend the bounds of DIY performance. Come see one show and stay for the next, all under one roof on vibrant Baltimore Avenue.

The Philly Clown Slam is an ever-evolving beast of an event - a vehicle (clown car?) for clowns of any kind to come and experiment, and the cast of characters is rotating! We like it this way. Though the term “clown organizer” may be a complete and total oxymoron, hosting the series is a labor of love organized by: Mitchell, Duns, Ben, Danielle
