Are YOU tired of humdrum protests and bored of capitalism?
Do YOU enjoy working in a team and ridiculing authority?
Do YOU long for extremely absurd adventures?

The Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army is looking for fools and
rebels,
radicals and rascals, tricksters and traitors, mutineers and
malcontents to
join its ranks. You could be part of a fighting force armed with
ruthless
love and fully trained in the ancient art of clowning and non-violent
direct
action. You could learn ingeniously stupid tactics that baffle the
powerful.
You could uncover your inner clown and discover the subversive freedom
of
fooling. You don't need to like clowns or soldiers, you just need to
love
life and laughter as much as rebellion. If you think you've got what it
takes then follow your nose & join CIRCA!

TRAINING TO BE RUBBISH
Like all armies, people who wish to join the ranks of CIRCA have to
undergo
training. Before going into battle with CIRCA, recruits take part in
intensive "bigshoe camps" lasting approximately three days for the
Basic
Rebel Clown Training (BRCT). At the end of the BRCT you will be capable
of
taking on any CIRCA mission. Becoming a clownbattant can be
challenging, but
it's a rewarding life.
There are five phases of BRCT:

Finding the Inner Clown
Subversive Play
Civil Disobedience and Direct Action
Bouffon Manoeuvres
Marching and Drilling
Details: Training will take place in the evening of the three days and
all
participants must be able to commit to the full training. Basic
sleeping
accommodation is available.
Cost: A Sliding scale donation to a fund that will cover expenses for
the
training space.

Come early and then stay for the Finding Our Roots Anarchist Theory and Action Conference and the Chicago Anarchist Film Festival!
