SEMINAR: INTRODUCTION TO CLOWN (Amsterdam - Neatherlands)

SEMINAR: INTRODUCTION TO CLOWN
Directed to people interested in having their first approach to Clown Technique.

PROPOSAL:
To be a Clown is a constant attempt to be there, in pure present. It's a journey through failure, vulnerability, exposition, delight, fragility, ridicule, and the encounter with the others. It is also to communicate, to laugh at oneself and let the others laugh back at us.
The Clown / payaso / claun / or clownish character is present in every one of us, and this technique helps us to discover it. Clown Technique works with the presence on stage, with projection, with real communication with the public, with rhythm, uninhibitedness, development of imagination, use of objects, improvisation, a good listening to the partners, an acute perception of the moment, and with your own personal creative material.
The objective of this seminar is to take a first submersion into the Clown Technique and to have your first encounter with your own clown.
