The Artist(s) Resource: Class with Christopher Bayes

Space is limited! Get your spot now!

It’s a complete disaster of fun and chaos… Everyone’s invited! Exercises will be tailored to each individual’s level and built to encourage both discovery and continuing growth: encouraging the new and provoking the veterans simultaneously. We will surely illuminate something elusive and rare: the comic world (with great peals of laughter)!
Jump into your body… open like a little flower (again)… rediscover your playful spirit, the simple pleasure and ferocious generosity of performance. In this intensive workshop we (the new and the old friends) pursue the clown together in all of its messy and hilarious beauty. Your relationship to all other forms of drama will be enriched again, still or for the first time by the openness and reckless abandon that the clown requires. The pleasure is in the pursuit.
