CLOWN BOSS: Modern Clown for Improv with Chad Damiani (Stamptown)
Improv is built on agreement and radical support. But often, in our effort to work together, we create work that lacks mischief and unpredictability. We end up feeling trapped by our own rules -- unable to break free and explore new possibilities. Clown principles can add that sense of risk and play. Learn how to subvert the expectations, blur the lines of fact and fiction, create greater stakes and bring the audience more into your play.
Designed for improvisers of all levels.
Date/Time: Saturday, November 14th 1-5pm
Cap: 16
Cost: $90
Prerequisite: None
All sales are final.
