The Dead Clown
|
The Dead Clown is the central character of the story, the one whom this fantastic
funeral is honouring … but could it all be a dream? A former member of the troupe
surrounding him, he dons his costume to perform onstage one last time.

|
The Loyal Whistler
|
The origins of the Loyal Whistler lie in the classic role of "Mr. Loyal", the
ringmaster of traditional circuses. The Loyal Whistler evokes images of a former
military man, one who has retrained in the circus arts but never quite lost his former
ways. When he starts to whistle, his boundless artistic passion comes to the fore.

|
The White Clown
|
For the White Clown, appearances are what matters most. Like the Loyal Whistler,
he is an authority figure … at least, he'd like to be. Of all the colourful characters, he
admires only the stars and scorns the others. It is the White Clown who opens the door to
the magic of the circus for the Dead Clown.

The Clowness
|
The Clowness is an actress, a veritable grande dame of the stage, who somehow found
herself a part of this nutty troupe. Her professionalism and her strength of character
allow her to bear the foolishness of her partners, whom she never fails to charm.
|
|
The Little Clown
|
A diminutive clown who's in love with the Clowness, the Little Clown is always
ready to play tricks on his associates. Impish and lively, he is both an endearing
companion and a force to be reckoned with.
|
|
The Giant Clown
|
Although only an amateur opera singer, the Giant Clown imagines himself
to be a great artist of worldwide renown. Without doubt, it is with him that the
Dead Clown is closest, almost like brothers.
