The workshop will take place as part of the "Small Arts" Platform, which will take place from 16 to 19 August 2022 in Ljubljana.

About

Since this is a crash workshop, meaning it is short by definition, we will focus on only one element of clowning. Through a series of proposals and games, we will explore the different uses of the gaze in clowning and apply the experience into our own performing genres, be it dance, theatre, burlesque, cabaret, ball or drag and all that jazz, we will play with all these and simply have endless fun. DISCOmmoveo is a game that creates text out of context. One such game that will inhabit the workshop is the somatic clown.

The workshop is open to all with an appetite for performance in whatever shape or form, all who want to expand their vocabulary with a clowning tool or enrich their performing skills by working closely with other performance hero(in)es. Wear something comfortable.
