Summary: | Initially, we present historic information on the classic clown pair that arouse in the modern European circus (White Clown and Auguste), addressing traits and qualities that characterize this pair. Thus, we intend to evidence certain functions and operations of the classic pair for the development of the performance, the comic game and the clowning scene, beyond the fixation in given models or types. Therefore, we discuss some examples of diverse (re)configurations and forms of comic pairs present in the scene of contemporary clownery, performing acts with operational principles of the pair White and Auguste. Finally, we search associations between operational principles of the classic pair and the clown poetics itself.
