Horsing and Clowning Around: The Dangers of High Horses
Oopsy Daisy, Zip Zap Zop, and Robert bring on a special guest, Horse, to star in their newest episode of Clowning Around! Together, they explore Horse’s gender identity and journey. Horsing and Clowning Around is a comedic look at how we tell queer stories and who controls our narratives.
Oopsy Daisy, Zip Zap Zop, and Robert are the hosts of a children’s TV show called “Clowning Around,” which is guest-starring Horse in their newest episode. Together, they attempt to tell the story of Horse’s trans journey, but have conflicting views on how to do so. After the clowns go behind Horse’s back to record a scene he wasn’t ready to share, tensions rise. The group is forced to think about what telling stories is truly about.
