Chaplinesque Performer

 The last act I was able to see was Fraser Hooper, a New Zealand based busker whose act includes acrobatics, street clown, and boxing. He is uproariously funny, though largely quiet, and one sees a lot of Chaplin inspiration in him. He was at the World Exchange Plaza when I came across him, just getting things set up.


I noticed the person walking the dog in the background, and wondered what the dog might be thinking of all this.


Some close ups as he continued his set up. He has a wonderfully expressive face.
