One Day Clown Workshop at the Lyric Theatre

Saturday 26 October – 10am to 4pm

Age Restriction: 18+

“A one day clown workshop is for anyone interested in playing in life or on stage. It is about finding the pleasure of being ourselves, dropping social masks and being open and taking risks in a supportive environment. No need to be funny but aim to have fun. The Clown might feel stupid, ridiculous and completely inappropriate- always with a huge sense of pleasure in playing.

We learn that it is okay to make mistakes and fail… the audience love the Clowns for sharing their unique ineptness with them. Our everyday weaknesses turn into the Clown’s strengths. Clowns liberate themselves from the demands of being ‘good’, proper and well behaved. We use a mixture of physical exercises, improvisation games and techniques to create clown theatre. We look at the performer-audience relationship and begin to discover and release our inner idiot and follow our impulses.”
