Filament: A Collab Lab presents: DARK (on mondays) - The Art of Play
Clown has a unique poetic potential because it allows the performer to explore & play joining the naiveté & the vulnerability of the child, with the rigor & the technique of the adult, thus revealing the poetry of the ridiculous. Led by Tom Spangenber, come to this workshop and see what's so funny!

ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP Clown has a unique poetic potential because it allows the performer to explore and play joining the naiveté and the vulnerability of the child, with the rigor and the technique of the adult, thus revealing the poetry of the ridiculous. In this workshop we will just scratch the surface of this challenging and rewarding work with some games and clown improvisations. Come out and see what's so funny!
