    Parlez-vous Francais?

    I'm currently living in France and speaking the Lang. is a major difficulty in trying to perform. It is incredible how easy it is to mess up jokes by misplacing the words. Example: Why did the chicken cross the road? To the get side other to! ha ha ha. (All in an "I speak Englinch" style accent.) What performing experiences do you have in other contrys? I don't want to be a mime, I want to juggle. I've done pretty good on stage, but not really saying anything.
    Thanks, Eric

    Eric, many jokes just don't hold up when they go from one language to another. Maybe you should find some jokes in French, and get a French friend to coach you. Then you'll soon be up to speed. We've done our show phonetically in at least 7 languages. And people love you just because you're making the effort. Try it- you'll see. Kelly.
