Not “clowning around”, but finding one’s inner clown and letting it out
You will be embarking on a personal, creative adventure, letting out all the wealth of your imaginary world and of your emotions, and re-discovering the pleasures of laughter, play and connecting you again with your capacity for derision.
It is to step towards meeting your clown, that naïve, sensitive, imaginative side of your character, who is able to share his view of the world with those who are watching him. It is a chance to share tenderness and laughter, a plea for your life energy.
The course is composed of preliminary lively exercises, accessible to everyone, designed to open your imaginary world. There will be one-to-one and paired situations, and then the chance to consider what has been revealed and what has made the most impression, without judgement and evaluation, with a view to be able to:
*Grasp the notion of “stage”; suggestions involving listening to oneself and to the performing-partners.
*Develop a freedom in improvisation and an awareness of the gradual change in you thanks to all the clown-tools ( imitation, repetition, stretching what springs up, etc. …)
*Savour the present moment; the course explores not only your relationship to space and objects, but also to yourself and others.
