AJ Miller plays the Clown.
A.J. Miller hails from Michigan but has called Chicago home for 8 years now. He is a member of The Chicago Mammals and has performed in many capacities around Chicago and across the country. Thanks to Jared, Kiri, and the cast for being wondrous!
THE CLOWN enjoys license to say what others might not, but his commentary takes on a more political edge with the arrival of Scheherazade. He soon lands himself in hot water (or a filthy riverside), and is forced to reevaluate his motivations.
“There ‘tis,
Our King woos by his Senses. Imprimus,
He Touch’d and was Touched by th’ bound’ries of
His Bride: by this he is insensate to
The Touch of’s Brother’s Borders. Segundo,
Tonight t’would See, and bask i’th’ Beauty of
The Sultaness as she there bare herself,
And him as well. Thereby shall he be blind
To missives howe’er massive, Bills howe’er
They’re quill’d, and Declarations however
They’re writ. Tertiary yet greater still,
That Night he Tastes and Scents the salty Wife,
May ‘hura Mazda guard the Artists then,
For there is no accounting for our Tastes,
(And Godamercy on our Fishermen, too).
And on the fortieth, mine hurts, will Hear
Scheherazade at last, the very Portals
By his spent Case o’erswell with Melody,
And on the Morrow he hears not your pleas.
So by the Dreaming with his Merry Gentress,
He spends his Senses and awakens Senseless..”
