Our Story

Chicago’s Healthy Humor Team of Red Nose Docs arrive to play once a week at La Rabida Children’s Hospital. Healthy Humor, Inc. is an international leader in the field of Healthcare Clowning. Our specially trained, experienced, professional performers, working in teams of two, partner with Child Life Specialists in fifteen hospitals across the country, including La Rabida Children's Hospital here in Chicago. Visiting all areas of the hospital, our Red Nose Docs create moments of joy, wonder, laughter and comfort for hospitalized children and their circle of caregivers.

Previous to that, our team worked as the Chicago Clown Care Unit of the Big Apple Circus, appearing in various children's hospitals in Chicago from 1999 until September of 2016 when the Big Apple Circus closed its doors and ceased to be our sponsor. During those seventeen years, we played at Comer Medical Center, La Rabida Children's Hospital and Children's Memorial (now Lurie Children's). We also performed as Vaudeville Caravan in assisted living/nursing home facilities of Alden Northmoor, Peterson Park, Norwood, Resurrection, Wesley, Little Sisters, Smith Village and Park Shore Estates.
