The Clown Speaks Without Words
A comedian tells a joke. The clown is the joke.
Nola's two-day workshop will be an insight into how to work without text, paying special attention to the rhythm of movement and how to move the body to express ideas physically, with maximum clarity. The aim will be to build a character that is not trying to be funny, but just is.
All parts of the body (and mind) will come into play. There will be improvisation, silly dance, choreography and fancy footwork. Language will be discouraged, but not necessarily sounds. Students will have the chance to discover aspects of the clown that are universal, as well as exclusive to themselves.
Suitable for the enthusiastic student of visual comedy, professional or amateur, who is reasonably fit and not afraid to move.
This is a two-day workshop by Nola Rae on 9-10 Jan. Students must wear loose fitting clothes and flexible shoes. Bring one juggling ball, a long scarf, and a towel for floor work.
Nola Rae Workshop is part of the London International Mime Festival 2016.
