CLOWN! April 17, 2010

Do you think clowns belong only in circuses, birthday parties, and wanted posters? Think again. The clown is one of the most enduring figures in performance history; from the virtuosic physical bits of Chaplin and Keaton to the verbal ballet of Will Ferrell and Stephen Colbert. The study of clown is the study of what is essential in performance; presence, timing, relationship, risk, truth, and joy. Bucketworks member, The Hinterlands will lead a full day clown workshop on Saturday, April 17th from 10:00am - 6:00pm exploring: Comedic timing, being "for" an audience, admitting the truth, simplicity, ferocious play. Get your tickets in advance and pay $55 because they're $60 at the door. To reserve your spot now send an email to [email protected] or call 414.208.4237.
