Next Step 2018 Co-Instructor: Jeff McMullen

Hey Hey!

Some of you that are new to the clown world may not be aware of Jeff. He has performed most of his recent career in the Appleton, Wisconsin area. He also has quickly risen to become one of the most noted "Santa Claus" performers in the USA.

Jeff is also a college speech instructor, motivational speaker, and certified karate coach. Jeff is a distinguised graduate of the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus Clown College and, in his earlier days, toured nationally with the RBBB circus. Jeff also has represented McDonald's restaurants as part of its personality-based marketing programs. 

In 1989, he was asked to serve as an instructor/curriculum developer for the Clown College's history-making founding session in Japan (the Gold Unit). He has been a personal mentor to many noted clowns performing today including Rone' & Gigi, Karen DeSanto, the Phoenix Suns Gorilla mascot, and the comedy duo, Miller & Mike.

In 1991, he became the star performer and Director of Western Entertainment at Reoma World (Theme Park), in Southern Japan. Jeff brings great insights on the business of clowning, along with comedy insights, routining and age-appropriate physicality. He has been a regular instructor at the Clown Camp in LaCrosse, Wisconsin and also recently taught at the American Clown Academy.  You can read a bunch more about Jeff at:  http://www.jeffmcmullen.com

I'm thrilled that you (and I!) will be able to learn from Jeff during our days together!
