What They Say

“Jusby is a funny clown and very creative. His performance included never-before-seen fire tricks along with classics. Flaming pies and the world-debut of flaming mistletoe had many couples kissing under a huge burning (metal) branch. We are planning on rehiring Clown Jusby and Draco for this year’s New Year’s Eve celebration and would highly recommend him for a variety of events.”

— Hillary Ryan, Director of Marketing & Communications, Museum of Glass

“(Jusby) clearly understands how to use humor to enhance an event or occasion. He stood out during Purim which, in Jewish tradition, is all about silliness! And understanding that clowning is not for all, he respects limitations and never pressures anyone to participate who does not wish to.”

— Rabbi Seth Goldstein

“Justin clearly understands how to use humor to enhance an event or occasion or even the experience of worship. At the same time he recognizes the need to maintain appropriate limits so as not to overwhelm. He also recognizes that while most people love the antics of clowns, there are those who have difficulty with them, and he respects those limitations. If you or your organization are planning an event at which you suspect good humor or even glorious silliness would enhance the occasion, I encourage you to speak with Justin.”

— Arthur Vaeni, Unitarian Universalist Minister

“This professional clown enlivens any occasion by drawing on a natural sense of humor and a bag full of clowning techniques. Justin creates excitement for your birthdays, family gatherings, reunions and even your staff meetings.”

— Lisa Smith, Executive Director, Enterprise for Equity

“I hired Justin to manage the entertainment at my son’s 11th birthday party… The results were nothing short of spectacular. Everyone was laughing hysterically and very happy. Would I hire him again? In a New York minute. He will give you every dime’s worth of your money and then some. He’s also great with all ages, from little kids to adults. Highly recommend.”

“Justin led a 30 minute ‘Wellness Break’ for our group of social workers. Since experiencing his Guided Laughter event, I have had MANY positive comments about his presentation. It was unusual, fun but still a valuable learning experience for a group of people whose job it is to make OTHERS feel better.”

— Trudy Soucoup, M.A.O.L.

“Justin is the consummate professional clown. He loves his work — and it shows! He knows his way around kids, makeup, crowd control, and parents. What I love most about working with Justin is that he strives to create a complete atmosphere of fun — with pies, music, professional props, and all the accouterments.”

— Ned Hayes

“I’ve been a fan for a while, so I was thrilled when Jusby was able to stop by my event. Everyone loved him, they couldn’t stop talking about it — to the point where they hired him again the next year, and gave him much more freedom to perform more of the shtick. Awesome. What can be better than a fantastic clown who also has loads of experience working with exceptional kids?”

— Puck Franta, Be the One Mentor Coalition Coordinator

“Jusby the Clown is a delight. He is playful, sweet and funny. Children and adults warm up to his unique form of clowning. He is professional and easy to negotiate with. He aims to please. He truly loves the art and craft of clowning.”

— Debe Edden, Heartsparkle Players

“We hired him for a two-hour premium visit, and probably only made it a third of the way through his total act… Many clowns seem to have one thing that they do particularly well with the rest used for filler; Jusby seems to handle every aspect of the clown’s trade well… This clown is the real deal.”

— Adam McIsaac

“I hired Justin to clown for me during one of my music shows. He was spontaneous and flexible in how he performed with me and the crowd loved him. Justin is a very organized, kind, and on time clown. I recommend him for any and all sorts of parties!”

— Chris “Sandman” Sand

“I was stressing about the shows and worrying about everything! I needed a pie in the face. It changes your perspective wonderfully! Thanks Jusby, that was just the therapy I needed!”

— Charlie “the Noise Guy” Williams

“My kids love him and want him back. He is a weird clown, but not too in your face. My kind of clown. Balloons, pies to the face if requested.”

— Thomas Scott McKaughn, owner Pizza T Records

“Justin is professional, and reviews his jobs before setting out to work on a project. People like Justin and his easy-going manner, he can usually get along with just about anyone. He listens well, which is a plus and can translate to others what is needed for a given project.”

— Marcia Killam Nunn, Marcia’s Potpourri

“Justin did an excellent job of showing us humor from the inside out, and the benefits of humor to healthy living. He was generous with his time and talents.”

— Patti Anne Logan, Volunteer, Spina Bifida Association of Washington State

“Imagine an entertainer for your tiny ones who can make the full-grown folks laugh as well. Jusby is a cutting-edge clown with a literary bent. Like a classic novel, or self-erecting crane, he operates on many levels.”

— Matthew Kreiling, Freelance Writer & Coach

“You are a very funny comedian Jusby. I had the pleasure of taking a class with you and the entire class was left cracking up… You are bringing a whole new light to local comedic talent for hire; to lift up our spirits and make us Olympians have a good old laugh. Bravo, a very needed and welcomed medicine.”

— Tamara Demetro
