Movement and Clown for the Improviser
Being Present in your Comedy.
In this 4 hour workshop, participants will play with Elements of Clowning
and Movement to create emotionally charged, physical scenework. Using the
concept of Authentication and Extension, participants will rid
themselves of plot oriented improvisation and "Talking Heads". Improvise with
your whole Body and your whole Heart! Experience a greater sensitivity to the moment
so that it may be played to the fullest.
Great for Actors and Improvisers alike.
All Levels of experience welcome.
Eric Davis has been improvising and teaching for over a decade. He has
taught Clown and Movement internationally, most recently in Ireland and
London. He was a co-founder of the John Brown Theatre, acclaimed for its
clown and bouffon work most recently showcased at the Kick Ass
Clown Cabaret
at the PIT theatre. Eric studied Clown with master teachers Phillipe
Gaulier, David Gaines, Moshe Cohen as well as Bouffon with Toronto's
Clowning guru, Sue Morrison. He and other members of John Brown Theatre
went on to create a monthly Clown Show "The Great Show Show Show" which
created 7 full length clown shows in 2002. Most recently, they performed
in Ireland and saw a 4 month run in Times Square on 42nd Street. His clown
