Molly is a Clown for Big Apple Circus Clown
Care at the University of Chicago Comer Children's
Hospital and La Rabida. She saw the first incarnation
of 500 Clown Macbeth in 2000 and it changed her
life. When the Clowns held auditions, she decided she
would die if she couldn't do this work. Luckily, she
got the job and has done every performance of 500
Clown Macbeth since. She co-created 500 Clown
Frankenstein and 500 Clown Christmas Carol. On the
inside, she is a Quiet Monkey.
