“The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas.” – Linus Pauling.
You’ve lost touch with the Muses? Or maybe you’ve been keeping them busy on trivial tasks? Or maybe they’re calling you daily but you just haven’t got around to asking them out on a date? Here is your chance! A clown party for Muses.
In this workshop, we’ll allow our clowns to fully enjoy their creative potential by encouraging their curiosity and ingenuity. We’ll look at the world through their eyes, and permit our normal, limited perspective to crack into a thousand pieces. We’ll let ourselves be more spontaneous and open-minded, freely associate ideas, move into comic universes where anything can happen, go further than most would dare – into the very heart of chaos.
“If you’re looking for different results, don’t always do the same thing.” – Albert Einstein.
We’ll also look at how to work creatively with others; find and use all the essential guide-lines that will help both you, and your team-mates, feel inspired and connected. We’ll examine the most common ways you can sabotage the fluidity and clarity within an improvisation and how to avoid doing that. We’ll also explore how you can help other clowns understand your intentions and develop the things that are working, so that your improvisations will seem pre-rehearsed and yet surprisingly fresh.
Join CLOWN CREATIVITY to:
- activate your creativity and give your imagination a kick start.
- explore, rediscover or free your clown’s incredible ingenuity.
- allow your brilliant and original ideas to surface.
- surprise yourself and amaze others.
- be more unpredictable and magnetic on stage.
