Creative Play with Isaac Kessler
Open Level - Ages 18+. There is a beautiful game in everything we do, so let’s revel in our successes, and succeed in our failures, as Clowns do best.

The Comic Impulse with Julia VanderVeen
The work of discovering your clown is the process of embracing your vulnerability and excavating the parts of you that are most interested in pleasure and in fun. In this workshop, we will work on unlearning some of those social norms and getting back to the play and impulse of our bodies.

Soft Clown: The Heart of Performance
Open Level - Ages 18+. Discover your clown in "The Heart of Performance" - a 3-hour workshop with Natasha Mercado where we celebrate vulnerability and authenticity to unlock your most magnetic stage presence.
