There is a clown that lives inside each of us. This clown is full of life - it is beautiful and hilarious. To be a clown is to embrace the freedom and joy of your own glorious foolishness.

The clown reunites us with our innate curiosity and allows us to befriend parts of ourselves that we judge or stifle. It invites us to rediscover wonder.

This introductory workshop is a chance to invite your clown out into the world. To adventure into a space of curiosity and chaos, delight and discovery, freedom and expansiveness To experience presence through laughter and play, and to revel in your own imperfectly perfect uniqueness.

Susanna Hamnett fell in love with the open-heartedness of the clown over thirty years ago when she began studying and working with master clowns John Turner and Michael Kennard in Toronto, and it has infused her theatre work and teaching ever since. 

This workshop is suitable for anyone 18 and up. No previous experience of clown or theatre is needed. It is limited to 16 participants.

Please note that this is a repeat of the May workshop. If you have already taken this workshop and are interested in exploring in more depth, Susanna will be offering a course of four shorter evening sessions in November.

You can read more about Susanna’s work here: www.susannahamnett.com or find her on FB (Susanna Hamnett) and Instagram (@susannahamnett).
