Travis and I both really enjoyed making these Vaudephone videos but couldn’t find a ‘sponsor’ to finance the continuation of the productions. Based on the Vitaphone series that is currently being packaged on DVD. So here is the first one and I will be posting more of them in the coming weeks! Enjoy!

2014 New York Clown Theatre Festival – ‘tinydangerous-popcorn’

Post author By Jim R. Moore
Post date September 27, 2014

Andy Sapora and John Leo hosted an evening of ‘clown short’ films. However they didn’t waste any time getting into their ‘tiny dangerous‘ fun!

John Leo and Andy Sapora start the show off with some eccentric dancing and stuff.

Andy Sapora juggles some razor pen knives for some ‘ooohs and aaahs’.

John Leo pierces this arm with a long needle and bleeds a little. (the ‘dangerous’ part of tiny dangerous’.)

Just before intermission Andy and John make an ‘offering’ to the audience of some really delicious cookies.

Three audience members accept the offering and are ‘drafted’ to make a short film during intermission.

After intermission and before screening the films Andy sets his arm on fire for a more ‘ooohs and aaahs’.

More ‘insane’ antics followed this but due to ‘R’ rated website I am not able to post the photos.

Here are links to the films that were screened.

Hilary Chaplain – “Happy Hour“

Noah Diamond – A Vaudephone Presentation – “United Nations Song”

Trav S.D. – “Too Much Nutcracker“

The Maestrosities – ‘Topeka Tomorrow“

Wayne Wilson/Franco Dragone – “Willie Jones: Trouble with Love“

Yang Miller – “Humor Seminar with Phillip Dunman”

Jeff Seal – “Lazer Katzenberg“

Emily James -“Flag Crew“
