In this workshop we will train the physical technique of the clown. 3 hours, open to all.
Clown technique often seems invisible, or hidden, but there are very specific storytelling and physical skills the clown employs, gently and naturally. This workshop will focus on drilling these skills, giving each participant ample time observing and being observed.
This 3-hour workshop is open to all. It will be firmly rooted in the world of theatrical red-nose clown.
