Moshe Cohen- Inner Clown
Samstag/Sonntag
04. - 05. June 2022
10-17 hr
This workshop is for clowns who wish to explore their inner clown world. Using your personal sense of humor, your sense of fun and funny as a guide, define and map your clown world. Expand this universe through improvisation and ritual. It is an opportunity to define, deepen and expand your clowns’ non-verbal vocabulary-your emotional expression. Inviting humor and lightness into how the clown feels creates resonance and connection with the audience. Work with different levels of expression, from subtle elements of lightness to expansive exuberance.
Improve your clown’s awareness, authenticity, and your capacity to embody clown.
Based in Richard Pochinko’s (Canadian) clowning methods, the workshop pedagogy also integrates a large number of Asian principles and influences – Kyogen, Butoh, Taoist health exercises, Shintaido and Zen.
Requirements: A familiarity with your clown.
"He is an excellent guide for navigating the inner world and discovering emotional and expressive possibilities from sincerity and joy.”
