What's Pleasure b

Pleasure B is the largest clown group in Japan. They have been well received not only in Japan but in foreign countries as well.

Please come see the exceptional skills of the Japanese clown for yourself.

Pleasure- B has been an established clown troupe since 1994.
As of 2009 we had 45 active members. We are an unique performance group due to the fact that we are the only clown group in Japan.

Our headquarters are in Nagoya, Japan but we bring our laughter and fun to the whole country.

Pleasure B performs on the stage in Nagoya, as well as, children's theaters, kindergartens, Theme Parks, special events, shopping centers, and Wedding Halls to name a few.

The yearly performance with all active members is regularly sold out due to the popularity of the show.

Individual and small group performances have become equally popular .
We perform from our desire of wanting you to know the clown and the power of laughter. Pleasure B sponsors workshops

for children who want to learn the art of juggling and pantomime. Pleasure B also has a free workshop to help the clown to be get started.

Since 2004 we have sponsored a project called "WORLD CLOWN FESTIVAL in JAPAN" where Clowns throughout Japan and

all over the world perform in Japan. We have also promoted "love and the earth Expo in Aichi". In 2005, nearly 200 clowns

from all over to the world came to participate in the Expo.

Pleasure B not only performs and participates in clown camps in Japan,

but we have participated in camps and performed overseas

as well. Such as participating and promoting the Japanese clown in the Mongolian circus, the mime festival ,

and the United States every year.

At the WGA Convention (World Clown Association) Pleasure B had some outstanding results.

A 2nd place and the 3rd place finish in the inaugural competition held in the United States.

Moreover, Clown "K" has been an established NPO "Hospital Clown" performing in hospitals since 2006.
