Join us for a night of game show fun where a troupe of outrageous clowns evolve into their most ridiculous selves to fight for the epic, ultimate prize. Three lucky clown contestants, plucked from the audience (not you, don’t worry), compete in rounds of skill and endurance to win a shot at a dizzying cash prize. Round by round, each clown saves their money to bet in a poker game in the Final Round to take home the grand prize, THE AMERICAN DREAM PACKAGE™!

For first-time-viewers, The American Dream package includes: Financial security, a house in a nice neighborhood, a white picket fence, a shiny new car, a nice heterosexual marriage, 2.5 clean children, and a hefty retirement fund. Which Clown will win?! Tune in to this interaction of Build a Bougie to find out!

Conceived as the first exploration of Clown as Protest (CaP), a project using Clown to structure social and political agitation towards leftist and humanitarian issues, Build a Bougie explores how we are systemically lured away from our mass belonging and opt for individual safety.
