Natasha Mercado started off 2026 with a bang by putting on very first festival, Soft Clown Fest, a one-day, full throttle celebration of “soft clown”, Mercado’s own particular movement within the clowning discipline of comedy. Natasha takes us on a wondrous long walk through the winding roads of clown, both past and present as well as LA and beyond and how soft clown fits into it on this week’s TCB Field Report.
