Description

This class will teach clowning skills for beginners. No previous experience is needed!

As a clown, you will experience simplicity in a BIG (enlarged/magnify/amplified) way and learn to connect to the audience, by gifting them with your ability to feel (and express your emotions), pause, marvel, be honest and seriously humorous. We will find access to our own inner comedian through meditative grounding, body and voice awareness building exercises, simple theatre games, and gaits/movement. We will focus on listening and connecting to ourselves and each other, simplicity and slowing down. As we develop our own physical comedy character, we might add a few simple props and costumes to underline each individual. We will practice playing on stage and being the audience.

This class will be taught in-person with COVID safety procedures, with the option to jump to virtual if necessary.
