The Character ClownThe Character Clown is not a clown 'type' but can be any character the clown wishes to portray, made up in any of the three clown makeup types. The First Character Clowns: YeeHaw the Cowboy Clown The Happy Hobo and the Sad Tramp became the first 'character clowns' because they did not fit into the established clown types. Because Tramp/Hobo makeup is completely different from the Whiteface and Auguste styles, they came to be recognized as a third 'type' of clown. Unlimited Character Possibilities Kupcake the Clown as Keystone Kop The Keystone Kops became popular in the very early years of the 20th Century. A film series was created around these totally incompetent characters who made America laugh with slapstick comedy. This character has remained popular with clowns throughout the years.  Hippie Clown Clowns can portray any 'character' that suits their personality and it is common to see clown doctors, cowboys, pirates, as well as different styles of police officers. But it doesn't stop there! I have also seen chefs, astronauts, prisoners, and a hippie, among others! Find great costumes for your newest clown character here!
