Develop and hone your comedic skills in a safe and fun environment with two masters of Clown.

In this highly enjoyable workshop you will play games, do exercises developing trust and complicity with your audience. You will learn how to shine as an individual and respond to every opportunity. The clown is joyful, playful, and mischievous. They may appear chaotic but the discipline lives within status, rhythm, and improvisation.

Ben Keaton and Chris Lynam have vast stage experience. They specialise in their relationship with the audience. Over these two days you will learn to trust your instincts and love the engagement you generate.

For the experienced and those starting out (over 18). For artists, actors, writers and physical performers. For those looking to capture the energy that excites you and the playfulness that makes a performer magnetic. This workshop is designed to recharge your batteries, to give you confidence in your own comic persona and ignite the joy that makes performance thrilling.
