Finding Your Fool: Weekend Clowning Class

A two-day dive into clowning, play + the art of the glorious flop

About the workshop

Finding Your Fool is a two-day immersive workshop for people ready to go deeper into clown, presence and performance.

Through movement, games, improvisation and physical play, we begin uncovering the strange logic, rhythm and vulnerability of your clown. The work is playful, embodied and alive.

Clowning asks us to listen, react, fail, recover, and stay connected while the ground shifts beneath us.

Expect laughter, discomfort, connection, risk, ridiculousness and moments of surprising honesty.

No experience needed. Just a willingness to step in.

What we'll cover

• The state of the clown - Establish a deep connection with your audience and embrace the moment.

• Playfulness of spirit - Activate your curiosity, imagination, and freedom to explore.

• Duo work - Collaborate with others to create hilarious and meaningful moments.

• Crack the body open - Learn the art of physical comedy and expand your presence.

• The flop - Discover resilience through failure and turn mishaps into moments of comic brilliance.

Perfect for

• Newbies who are curious about clowning and creativity.

• Groups looking for a fresh way to build camaraderie, trust, and joy.

• Anyone who wants to break free from their day-to-day routine and experience something wonderfully different.
