A New York City party clown company, Hijinx Entertainment (www.hijinx.tv ), saw a 150% increase in business for the first week in May, which it attributes to the economic stimulus tax rebate launch.
“The government was hoping the public wouldn’t pay down debt or save for the future. They hoped the public would go out and blow it. I had no idea they’d be blowing it on party clowns,” said Hijinx president Brian McGovern.
Hijinx, who books magicians, comedians and variety acts for corporate events and private parties, has produced a special show package entitled, “Trickle Down on a Clown – The Economic Recovery Act.” Party planners can book a professional quality clown show for any occasion, anywhere in the United States, for under $600. Shows include magic, juggling, puppets and balloons. Party planners should call 877-688-3133 to book an event. Details are available at http://hijinx.tv/
