FIRST TIME EVER!
Clown, Humor, Physical Comedy OPEN WORKSHOP
13 OCT 2024 | 12 -15 h
CIRKOLUTION!
@Toplocentrla, Sofia
LET'S BE HUMAN TOGETHER!
Humour and laughter are serious matters that need to be examined and spread around the world with utmost dedication.
Fluid, subtle and fun.
I had my first clowning experience with Titania. It was a childhood dream I'd never dared to realize... Titania guided us from exercises to skits, everything was fluid, subtle and fun! Her great finesse and kindness enabled her to accompany each person personally, so that they felt at ease in the discovery of her clown.

A clown in everyone
The Clown workshop is a dream-come-true! Titania's workshops are for every lost soul looking for laughter and precious time spent with cool people! A place where there's no difference if you're a professional clown or an amateur - there's a clown in everyone. Maybe it's time for you to find yours!

Contact and sharing
Such an energetic and giving Clown teacher. Constant movement and fun exercises. I learned that clown is not just a word. It is a verb. Contact and sharing the experience of key moments with the audience. We also talked about the therapeutic effect of the art of making people laugh. Such a democratic teacher. A world famous clown with such a humble and empathetic approach. Thanks, Titania!

In 2024 we presented a series of five clown and physical comedy workshops for adult beginners.
Parallel with the preparations for the 13th Mini Art Fest – Cirkolution (10-13 Oct 24), we aim at developing the emerging clown community in Bulgaria.
Next will be an OPEN workshop on Sun 13 Oct 2024, 12 - 15 h.
This means that anyone has the chance to experience live what it takes to be a clown.
