THE WISDOM OF IMPERFECTION – clown level III
Emerson Village, Forest Row
Sunday 30 Sept to Friday 5 Oct 2012
Clowning is the art of making mistakes and there is an art to
paying attention to the unexpected, to accidents and those unintended
things we do. Sometimes our striving for perfection blinds us to
what the world is trying to tell us. Great wisdom can be found in
making peace with our shadows and our shortcomings and clowning
celebrates all our humanity even those part of it we are desperately
trying not to be.
This level III course brings a fresh new way of looking at impros
by focusing on the many strategies we use for avoiding mistakes.
The course gives a greater focus on theatrical and improvisational
techniques and will feel very different from previous levels. For
example, impros are repeated to bring actors to work in less familiar
and/or comfortable areas.
Level 3 moves the work one step closer to performance and is an
ideal preliminary to Towards Performance and/or Social Clowning.
