Something like that, for a time. The Carnival travels around, putting up our tent in different towns for a few days and then moved on. I wasn't a performer - just a barker for the time being. Some fortune telling. Whatever work needed to be done.

I'm sure you would have fit right in. A performance like that would be very popular.
[Out of the tent then! It isn't a huge affair, a few more of the colorful tents, more crowd milling about - they mostly just seem human, a few halflings or dwarves mixed in - though a few of the people who seem to actually be working stand out more. A man with a painted face directs people to a stand where he seems to be checking for weapons, a tall, large woman with hair that fades from dark to white standing by with her arms crossed. Intimidation.]
You go into town, the taverns, the market, trying to find a crowd to fill the place. I'm hard to miss, you see, so people tend to look my way. Not much point in a carnival if you can't get the coin from putting asses in seats.

What's a barker? I ain't ever been to a carnival... Just plenty of festivals.
