Intro to Clown
What is your special brand of funny? In this workshop, I’ll draw from techniques I’ve learned from my own clown teachers. I’ll introduce you to the world of clowning, where you’ll learn to embrace your own stupidity, vulnerability, and failures…and turn them into superpowers. Starting with a series of games, we’ll explore your unique inner clown, progressing into a series of activities to help you create your own performance.
Intro to Bouffon
“The audience laughs at the clown, but the bouffon laughs at the audience.” A provocative and often grotesque theatrical form drawing from satyrs, jesters, and satire, bouffons thrive in the joy of mockery. Using this mockery, as well as ensemble work, they expose human hypocrisy through play.

Storytelling
From the page to the stage and everything in between, storytelling is at the heart of what makes us human. The applications of learning techniques to improve your storytelling are boundless.
