Clown and Physical Comedy Workshop with Clare Bartholomew

This workshop is a vibrant, generous space for play: a place to take creative risks, discover the fun of your own absurdity, and explore the kind of connection that energises an audience.

Clare distils her lived practice, the instincts, the precision, and the glorious flops that ultimately light the way into a playful, structured, deeply practical week of creative investigation for performers hungry to stretch, leap, and surprise themselves.

Over the two days we will explore exercises, tasks and scenarios for solos, duos and small groups where you’ll practice expressing joy, vulnerability, mischief, your inner idiot, and the absolute pleasure of “being seen” by an audience.

The workshop is hands-on, joy-forward, and designed to feed directly into your artistic practice, whether you’re devising new work, strengthening stage presence, or wanting permission (and a push!) to be gloriously, imaginatively silly.
