Here’s Tanshin’s Playroom!
Outfitted with an aerial hoop, a stage, gothic hints and beautiful lights, he spends almost all of his time here. I cleaned up a bit for the photo, but if you squint you’ll see Tanshin’s favorite toy, a stuffed creepy clown. He loves the creepy stuff, which makes him special in my eyes.
Normally, his toys are more visible. He’s got some paint-splattered juggling pins, a huge mat for his slapstick (which he’s recently started to grow out of, but that’s okay, Kik-Kik can easily use it), long black and white hankerchiefs, and a ton of vintage books for him to pretend to read upside-down.
