Meet at southern end of Union Square, W 14th St between Fifth Ave and Park Ave South; bricktheatre.com. Travel by foot, subway, unicycle or overcrowded VW bug to the New York Clown Theatre Festival opening parade. After a bit of horsing around, the jolly group will board the L to Williamsburg. Bozos can show off their athleticism at McCarren Park, join a giant pie fight at the Brick (579 Metropolitan Ave between Lorimer St and Union Ave, Williamsburg) and see a preview of the festival.
