Class Clowns

#Main Info

Class Clowns

Discover the art of making people laugh. Through physical comedy, improvisation and character creation, students explore comic timing, exaggerated movement and the power of a well-placed pause. Working individually and as an ensemble, they devise scenes, experiment with performance techniques and turn simple ideas into comedy.

This workshop develops students’ capacity to create, perform, and respond, reflecting on their own choices and those of others as makers and audience members.
