 WHERE
IS MY MUSE? - An Introduction to Clowning
with Angie Foster
A series of half-day workshops
Sunday Apr 6, June 1, June 8,
June 15, 2014
Philadelphia, PA
By turning the world upside down (as clowns do) we somehow come
to see ourselves and world in unexpected new ways. The intention
of this course is to explore the relationship between clowning and
creativity.
• How do the stories we tell define us?
• How does strong emotional commitment bring clarity to our
stories?
• How can being vulnerable make us stronger?
Clowning is a state of playfulness that allows us to experience
a child-like, naïve and vulnerable state of being ... and paradoxically
we learn, grow, and are strengthened through reconnecting playfully
with what makes us most vulnerable. This approach to clowning is
not a technique (tricks, gags and routines), but a personal journey
towards finding one’s unique way of being - by listening and
being receptive, essential skills for any creative and imaginative
endeavor. It is only in letting go of control that we begin to be
surprised by the depth of that which is around us and within us.
Class size is limited to 12. Please register early.
