A special course dedicated exclusively for cabaret and variety performers that provides a selection of clowning skills that can be used in your own performances.
How do you deal with performing in environments you are uncomfortable in? How do you ensure you engage the crowd when you are "not feeling it today"? How can you cope with unexpected situations that arise mid performance?
This workshop covers a series of tried and tested clown exercises that have transferable skills for all performance disciplines, while introducing you to the concept of your inner clown. The concepts covered will assist those who often find themselves in challenging performance situations as all cabaret artists do and empower them to turn unexpected and unplanned events into beautiful pieces of entertainment.
Clowning is a powerful tool. With the clown's mindset, you can approach situations that you may normally find uncomfortable with joy and enthusiasm. Students of clowning often find themselves saying "I had no idea I could that" and it is this phenomena that this workshop taps into.
It's also going to be a lot of fun, and teaching through a series of games means you will leave with a collection of tools and exercises that you can practice on your own long after the workshop has finished.
Kiki Lovechild is a cabaret clown, who has performed on the variety circuit for 11 years. As well as touring on the variety circuit, Kiki has spent the last 3 years working on and performing his 5 star clown show The Weatherman. Currently he is creating two new clown shows that have been booked into venues for this year, appearing silently in a musical and also working a project to teach clowning to a group of excellent disabled artists in Cambodia.
