Expand your clowning horizons by learning to integrate object work into your presence. Derived from a history of circus arts, this 2.5 hour workshop will help you explore the intersection of skill performance and comedy. We will learn to take risks of technically difficult feats of skill and react honestly to the repercussions.

For this class, I will provide a brief introduction to juggling, but no prior experience is necessary.

*Clowning is an inherently physical sport. Please wear comfortable clothes for moving around in as well as bringing a bottle of water!

Instructor Bio
Annabelle (She/Her) is a variety performer and funny woman from Portland, Oregon. She believes in a multi-disciplinary approach to comedy that is derived from the many teachers she has studied under and performance styles she has practiced, such as improv, clown, stand-up, and even juggling! She is a self-described ‘absolutely no jokes absurdist’. Her comedy is inspired by her queer identity as a trans woman who challenges the stereotypes and expectations of society. She co-hosts a monthly clown show every 3rd Saturday at Curious Comedy Theater called Something Weird.
