About the Workshop
Toto Circle in collaboration with Space of Act and Lilanoor Center for Voice and Music welcomes you to the world of Clowning!
All of us have a clown living somewhere inside us. Sometimes our clown energy is visible; sometimes it is just beneath the surface of our consciousness, and sometimes buried so deeply that nobody knows where it came from, who it is, or what makes it tick.
This workshop will be an exploration to finding your inner clown using improvisation, rhythm, singing and tools from physical theatre. It is designed to free your creativity, ignite your imagination, and help you tap into the joyous spirit of clowning.
This is open to anyone and everyone eager to explore the art of clowning.
You’ll learn to let go of inhibitions, embrace spontaneity, and trust your instincts, all while fostering a supportive and inclusive environment. But clowning isn’t just about laughter—it’s also about connection. As you delve into the world of clowning, you’ll discover how to engage and connect with your audience on a deeper level. Whether it’s through a simple gesture, a mischievous wink, or a well-timed pratfall, you’ll learn to communicate without words and touch the hearts of those around you.
So, whether you’re an aspiring performer, an improv enthusiast, or simply someone looking to inject more joy into your life, our Clowning Workshop is a perfect place to let your inner clown shine.
