Theatre Garage Project initiative: Discover Your Clown A workshop with Rupesh Tillu The Clown Plays Here and Now Clown Birth - We all have a hidden clown residing within us, during the workshop we will give a birth to your inner clown character through an organic method. The clown figure, in its pure form, bases itself precisely on the ‘human condition on the fundamental paradox that is life and death. In this way it engages and develops both the personal and professional aspects of a participant. Play encourages the freedom of movement, speech and fantasy. Its a pre-requisite to the illogical, impulsive experience of creativity and essential to good performance. The workshop will take you through a series of playful exercises to give you tools with which to build instant games with your audience, the space you are in or the objects around you. Here and Now is the fundamental necessity of any performative discipline. How can an inner impulse of an actor find harmony with the impulses thrown at her/him from the audience members or co-actors? The workshop is designed to provide tools for performers to make specific choices from the world of endless possibilities. By using contemporary clown principles, they will be able to work here and now on stage.
