Dale 'Klutzy the Clown' Rancourt

/

For more than a decade, it would have been difficult to find a Cape Bretoner who hadn't heard of Dale Rancourt’s alter ego, Klutzy the Clown.

Rancourt entertained both children and adults, bouncing from birthday parties to nursing homes to public events. Although he was not an especially good performer, he still managed to carve out a niche for Klutzy in Cape Breton's entertainment economy, but it's all gone now.

In this multi-part series, I’ll be delving into the disturbing tale of the disgraced Dale 'Klutzy the Clown' Rancourt.
