Reach in your pocket.

Take out a coin. 

Heads idiocy. 

Tails parody.

The clown and the bouffon, 2 sides of the comic coin. 

Both hilarious and charming but in different ways. 

 

The clown, a professional idiot, a charming one, open playful and stupid. The clown plays to get the audience laughing and keep them laughing. With this laughter they can stay 10 more seconds in the spotlight. The joy to be ridiculous. 

 

The bouffon plays because they have something strong to say. They charm their audience into laughter. 

Laughter disarms the audience. 

The bouffons wields parody and humour as weapons to reveal difficult truths, creates bold imagery to shock and provoke all the while sharing the beauty of its humanity with the audience. 

 

On this workshop we will meet them both.

 

You will begin to see where your comic tastes lie, it will be immense fun and with you there we will go far playing with impulse, sensitivity, lightness and pleasure, all things to help you progress as an artist today.
