Red Nose Clown Workshop

Unleash your ridiculous self

 

Intro to Clown & Making a Clown Show

Besides a red nose theatre clown you will during this workshop discover your unique and individual comedy.

We discover the clown through the analysis, amplification and play of the actor and how she/he takes the physical and emotional space naturally.

While focusing on how to be build a clown with specific body language, attitudes, emotions rhythm, voice, and costume we also learn how to be vulnerable, make misstakes and laugh at oneself.

Norman (see bio below) will give us a guided visit to the ordinary everyday and the extraordinary work of artists and actors.
Can we see what we are looking at?
Are we tourists or do we live here?
We all share the same verbs. We all live the same lives. We are all the same.....before we become different. But how different are we and how are we different?

 

Can we see what we are looking at?

with NORMAN TAYLOR

Norman taught alongside Lecoq at the École Lecoq for almost 20 years. He is one of the few remaining first-generation Master Teachers of this school and is an authentic holder of this powerful pedagogic lineage.

 

Amy (see bio below) will be presenting "Theatres of Space" - her research on the relationship between Jacques Lecoq’s theatre pedagogy and postmodern spatial theories. Lecoq proposes that “everything moves” – not only human bodies, but also the spaces they inhabit.
Amy’s research looks at these lived spaces as theatrical forms, or “territories”, and takes this insight one step further: our lived environments shape us by setting the stage, casting the roles, and writing the script. We live in and live out – “theatres of space”.
