Reliable sources reported American clown and entertainer Jango Edwards’ death at the age of 73. The Mayor of the city Ciudad Condal Jaume Collboni announced the sad news.

Stanley Ted Edwards was born on April 15, 1950, in Detroit, Michigan, United States. Known professionally as Jango Edwards, Edwards was an American clown and entertainer.

He spent most of his career in Europe, primarily in Spain, France, Netherlands, and England.

His performances were mainly one-man shows in the European cabaret tradition. He built up a cult following over more than three decades of touring Europe with his shows.

Jango Edwards was a native of Detroit, where his family owned a successful landscaping business. During the late 1960s, Edwards became immersed in radical politics, philosophy, religion, and the esoteric sciences.

After three trips to Europe, Edwards decided to give up his possessions in the United States and travel to Europe to study the art of comedy and the clown.

Edwards became a busker in London and formed traveling comedy groups there.
