Master Class in Clowning

If you are an experienced performer and wish to take your art to a new level, surrounded by like-minded students of clowning, then this workshop is for you. We will dive down deep into the clown’s essence, working individually on your clown character and the clowns existential question, before moving on the 5 pillars of clowning and solo and partner work.

CLOWN CRAFT

If you want to taste the art of clowning and have fun doing it, then join the fun. We will work individually and with group exercises in a joyful, supportive environment. You will come away with some solid clowning fundamentals and skills.
