Taking Clown into Acting
2 day Clown Intensive with John Wright
|
What does Clown have to teach us about acting?
Join pioneering clown teacher, theatre director, and author John Wright for a weekend workshop at the Bristol Clown School. This workshop explores the key elements of Simple Clown, showing how clowning can inspire and enrich dramatic performance. Through playful experimentation, you’ll discover how clowning affects meaning, not just to provoke laughter but to bring depth and creativity to your work. Perfect for theatre-makers ready to break the rules, challenge conventions, and discover fresh approaches to acting. Come play, explore, and transform your craft! WHAT OTHERS SAY:
"John creates an engaged and judgement free atmosphere in order for you to explore and play freely. I gained so much confidence from the workshop and tools to take forward in my practice. I look forward to joining in one of his sessions again." Previous participant, The Anatomy of Play "John Wright’s workshops have been an absolute game-changer. Quite literally: the classes have taught me how games and playfulness are the keys to spontaneity on stage and have been a significant addition to my practice. The workshops are packed full of creative insights, game frameworks, physical practice and pure fun. It has been an excellent and joyful learning experience." Previous participant, Clown & Mask |
