A weekend of clowning with the focus on devising and creating clown material- solo and in the group, with the opportunity to try existing ideas out.
We tap into our innate sense of play and creativity, learn from each other and let people laugh at us. As clowns we take risks, fail and follow our instincts to be true to ourselves. We will use the little red nose to find freedom from social restraints and expectations and follow our joy.
This workshop will include: solo and group improvisations, player audience relationship, red nose, lots of moving and a larger portion of surprise. Have fun rather than being funny
Suitable for 18+,
Fee: full £180, conc £140, feel free to get in touch if finances stop you, I always try and accommodate individual circumstances and would like this to be inclusive to all.
spaces are limited as I like to work in smaller groups so everybody gets a chance to play.

"I had so much fun at Frank's workshop. I loved the games, the warm-ups, the clown exercises and improvisations. Frank was open to our suggestions and questions as we went. He even gave my friend and I suggestions for our clown act. He has a marvellously unique (and funny) sense of humour!"
David Farmer theatre director/teacher

"Hilarious and revelatory--I totally recommend."
"Who knew that that acting the idiot could be so much fun and transformational. Thanks for such a funny, absurd, heart wrenching and bloody ludicrous weekend.
Highly recommend this well constructed workshop to explore in a safe space."
"It was a real privilege Frank, you are so generous with sharing your beautiful clown while provoking and encouraging the wonderful clown we discovered within us! I want more please!!"
