EMBRACING THE UNEXPECTED - clown level 2
ONE BILINGUAL WEEK INTENSIVE in Montreal QC
with Vivian Gladwell & Blondine Maurice

This course offers further practice of clowning with the focus
on structure and relationship. The more demanding aspects of this
level come from a need to practice a responsiveness to and awareness
of your partner on stage, your audience and the images, stories
and characters that emerge during improvisation. The teaching method
will emphasize finding greater insights into the techniques of improvisation
and performance, providing challenges and inspiration enough to
take your understanding of this work forward.
