Clown School with Britt Small (Atomic Vaudeville, Victoria)Connect, explore and play with your inner clown performer!
This workshop builds the fundamentals of clown work in the tradition of the Pochinko technique developed by the great Canadian clown Richard Pochinko who combined both European and First Nations traditions of masked and clown performance. The workshop includes exercises that focus on increasing spontaneity, playfulness and stage craft.
Participants will develop their performance abilities, as clowning is an essential tool in many theatrical disciplines.
