"Connor Storrie clown is more easy. Yes, this is the modern clowning that all the thinkpieces are thinking about. It's gettin' real nude, contorting one's body, and confronting the audience like you're a cat from Cats."
"Clowning vet Storrie brought what we think may be an old character to SNL, a stripper who was hit by a car but still wants to put on a good show."
Connor Storrie brought modern clowning to Saturday Night Live, performing an absurdist character—a stripper hit by a car who continues performing despite injury. The sketch featured physical comedy, body contortion, and direct audience confrontation reminiscent of theatrical performance styles. Storrie, an experienced clown performer, presented what may be a character previously performed at LA's Elysian Theater. The sketch was performed before a bachelorette party audience including Ashley Padilla, Jane Wickline, Sarah Sherman, and Veronika Slowikowska. The performance exemplifies contemporary clowning approaches that emphasize physical absurdity and audience engagement.
