The Art of Being Ridiculous
June 25, 2022 @ 3:00 pm
Free
Intended for adults (actors and non-actors alike), this workshop provokes the ridiculousness in all of us through play, to see to what point we can expose ourselves, testing our limits of what is considered “good sense” and losing our fear of being ridiculous. The idea is to explore the world of physical comedy, using techniques from great circus and theater artists from the United States and South America. The activities include physical warm-ups, exercises, improv, and theater games, utilizing the clown’s mask and creating short scenes. The workshop is administered by the Brazilian circus artist Jonatas Campelo, known by his stage name Capvara the Clown. He has worked with physical theater and circus arts internationally for more than twelve years. Free.
