Chapter 57: The Show Begins
I returned to Red Tail after lunch and give everyone the tickets at the front row. They have to see me perform.
During practice, I was praised a lot for being able to do many things. Except by the contortionist. I know I have flexible because of my daily training, but not that flexible. Doing a split is the best I can do.
Thanks to that, I will perform most of the time from start to finish. I don't mind because I enjoyed it a lot. But because of that, the focus of the circus today is in the comedy.
Usually, other performers will perform and shows their awesomeness for a while. But because of their lack of members because of food poisoning, they have to change their routine which in turns makes me part of their new routine.
Since the shows is at night, from seven o'clock until nine, the troupe decided to for us to rest after lunch until one hour before the shows began. Since they see me practicing too hard, they thought I might be tired. But the truth is I can go on and not feeling tired at all. But I was told that if I continued practicing, other might follow. Even if I don't get injured, the other might be. That's why I choose to rest in Red Tail.
Back in Red Tail, everyone is more excited than when I told them we're going to the circus. Must be because I will perform. That means I have to show them my awesomeness. I can't let them down.
It's finally time for me to go. I need to prepare my costume and makeup. This show might be the only time I will perform. That's why this has to be the best performance. I lend Blobby to Sophie who tells everyone about Blobby's other ident.i.ty. Two hour is enough for her to last the whole show. She will transform into her female human form before they enter the tent and watch me like everyone else.
Behind the stage, I let the makeups artist to do their things. I told them it has to be one-of-a-kind face. When they finished with me, I looked at the mirror. It's looking good. They cover my face with white paint and draw a big lips over my lip to the cheeks. There's a red colored heart shaped symbol on my left eye and on my right eye it's a diamond shaped one. On my forehead, it's a black spade shaped on the right, and a club on the left. Just like the symbol on playing cards.
I put on a big red round nose and a blue afro wig. I don't know if this is a one-of-a-kind but I like it. I wore a red oversized pants and striped s.h.i.+rts. With pillow underneath that makes me look big. They don't restrict my movement at all.
Finally, the show began!
The MC and leader of the troupe, Thomas, introduce everyone for the shows. He also apologize for the lack of members. I'll be the last one he will introduce.
"And now! We have a special guest to subst.i.tute our lack of member! He is a legend! No one knows where he came from! He just appeared today and tell us the show must go on! He's the legendary clown, Clarence the Clown!"
I'm a legend before my first appearance? I guess Thomas know how to put someone in the spotlight. I just have to make sure what he said will come true.
I get into the stage and waved my hands to the audience. I saw Daniel and the others pointing at me saying, "That's Roy!"
I guess they recognize me on first glance. I waved at them longer than I did to other audience.
After waving at everyone, I took out three b.a.l.l.s. This is the part where I show everyone my juggling skills.
Everyone looked at me in awe. Well, most of them are kids, though. They are being brought here with their parents. I can easily make the children entertained, but the adult, I will try harder.
That's why the circus' staff put a huge ball in the stage. While juggling, I jumped on the huge ball and balanced myself on the ball. This time everyone is amazed. Well, not Kayla and Angela who already knows that I can do this. Not like I have shown this performance to them, but I think they just think everything I could do here is normal if I managed to do it. Daniel and the others is showing the same reaction as everyone else.
I did a round on the stage on top of the huge ball while juggling three b.a.l.l.s. Then Thomas come up and throws me another ball. There's four b.a.l.l.s now that I'm juggling. I can hear the audience gasped.
Thomas added one more ball and it became five. The audience's reaction became wilder. I can do more but I think this is enough. Both Thomas and I don't want the standard of every shows to be too high. If the audience's expectation is too high, then in the future when I'm not performing, we will only let them down. That's why only five b.a.l.l.s is enough.
I jumped down from the huge ball and grabbed all the b.a.l.l.s I juggled at the same time. I bowed down to the audience and everyone's clapping at my performance.
I return to the backstage and come back again with balloons on my hand. It's time for balloon art show while the other is preparing their props. It's just for a few minutes and only enough to make one balloon art.
I blew air into the balloon enough to shape it after I blew it. Then with my quick hands, I shape it into the form of a dog. I heard applause again. I'm doing really well. Since Daniel is in the front row, I gave that dog shaped balloon to him. He was so happy.
Other kids also shows that they want me to make them one. But it's already times for other performer. The strongman.
Thomas announced who will come next and the staffs are putting the props at the stage. It was a barbell with 100kg written on each weight. And also a thick book.
When the staff put the barbell, they were asked to drop it purposely on the ground to tell the audience how heavy it is. The sound is so loud the tent is covered with silence. No more applause or someone speaking.
Before the strongman's appearance I need to look like I want to try lifting it. I grabbed the bar and tried to lift it up. Although I can lift it, I pretend that it was too heavy for me. I tried many times but I failed. I even pretend that my hand slipped and fall on my back. Everyone laugh at my ridiculous action.
Then the strongman came with a sneer. That sneer makes everyone laughed again. He grabbed the book prepared for him and rip it in half with his strength. Leaving everyone in awe.
Then he leave the stage to grab something and return again. He's carrying a balloon filled with helium. He shoved the balloon to me and I pretend that it was way too heavy for me. I tried to push it, pull it, lift it, push it down, and it stayed in one spot without moving. Everyone laughed at how weak I am.
The strongman ignore me and grabbed the barbell bar. He easily lifted it up with one hand. Everyone amazed by his strength.
I've tried that before. I don't think it was truly 200 kg. But it's still heavy enough for normal people to lift. But he can easily lifted it with one hand while sneering at me who can't lift a balloon properly.
He dropped the barbell and it makes another loud sound. Everyone gave him a round of applause as he bows to the audience. Then he approached me with a needle he took from his pocket. He stab that needle to the balloon I tried to push forward, and I pretend to fall forward. It was funny for everyone to see a clown doing stupid things.
I got up and pretend to be angry at him. But he only has a fierce expression on his face without saying anything so I pretend to be scared and say 'peace bro'.
Then he waked out the stage. When his back is facing me, I made a gesture like I'm making fun of him. Some audience laughed at me. When the audience laughed, the strongman looked back to me and I just do a stupid thing. Pretending that there's nothing wrong. Of course the laughter become louder after that.
I did it each time he's turning his back on me and he also stopped when he heard laughter. Finally he left the stage and I have no one else to make fun of. There's just the sound of the audience clapping.
The shows begin with a good start.
