Spencer Novich is in the film’s supporting cast as a member of Circus Smirkus, the acclaimed youth circus based in Vermont that is featured in the movie. He delivers one of the film’s funniest lines about life and gender on Clown Alley, according to the circus.
After Circus Smirkus, Novich then earned a degree in physical theater from the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. He is starring now as the lead clown in Cirque du Soleil’s production, "KA," in Las Vegas.
