I'm a performer, how can this help me?

Clowning can help your performance in lots of different ways for heightening your audience awareness, building resilience through play, improving your instincts on stage and experiencing vulnerability. You can read more about this in our blog here.

Is this a solo or group type workshop?

All of the above! You can clown by yourself, with a partner, in a group, bring it into stand-up, acting, improvisation and life. Our workshops usually involve a mixture of solo and group work.

What happens in a workshop?

We'll do some warm up exercises which will bring you into the room and into your body. We'll then run exercises as a group, individually and in pairs whilst making links to why we are doing these as how they can help you learn more about yourself, your performance style and how to use these skills in your practice/ life.

Are there any breaks?

Yes, depending on the length of the workshop, energy of the participants etc. we'll have breaks. There will usually be at least one 5-10min break every 60-120 minutes.
