Discover your inner idiot with our taster class in improvised clowning. Learn how to be stupid and hilarious on stage. Listen to the audience, find the fun and play with others to create something magical.
No previous experience is needed for this class. If you like being stupid, playful or want to bring more physicality and audience sensitivity into an existing performance, then this class is for you. Not a performer? Just want to be an idiot for a few hours? Great, come along!
This class can help you become more playful in your life and on stage as you find it easier to discover the fun and take advantage of that through a series of improvised exercises.
By the end of the class you’ll have a better understanding of what clown comedy is, the formats it takes and where to take your clown or comedy journey after the course.
This class is great if you want to:
- Be an idiot
- Get to play ridiculous improvised games in physical comedy… whilst being an idiot
- Dip your toe into the world of clown… and be an idiot
Class size: up to 16
