Fire Clown Inventor of the "50' Fireball"© Showman & Puppeteer

—Laurent Martin, aka Lowrent the Clown, has studied under the nationally recognized Bread and Puppet Theatre and the infamous Alberta St. Clown House. He first joined America's underground circus community through the creation of the New York based troupe, the Surrealist Training Circus.

—Lowrent has joined with much gusto the sideshow crew of the 999 EYES, bringing with him dangerous and thrilling stunts such as the "50' Fireball"™, Hotdog Cannon, and the infamous Piss of Fire®, as well as his skills of fire breathing, eating, and fleshing. The 999 EYES found him washed upon the beach after the Hurricane Katrina destroyed his home in New Orleans, and he has been with the 999 EYES ever since, teaching valuable lessons about fire safety to people all over the country.
