Clown: The Physical Comedian is a detailed and comprehensive
workbook for those interested in the art of clowning and physical
theatre, including actors, directors, improvisers, stand-up
comedians, circus artists, mask performers and devisers of new
work. Offering an extensive and hugely diverse compilation of
tried-and-tested exercises and games, the book is for students,
teachers and practitioners to aid ensemble-building, character
development, devising theatre, physicalising text and vocalising
movement, plus creating cabaret acts, clown routines and adding
physical play to scripted scenes. It offers advice on subjects such
as developing presence onstage; increasing strength, flexibility
and physical expression; developing partner and trio relationships;
understanding the power of the mask; and working with an audience -
in particular, turning a performance into a conversation with the
audience and increasing the actor's ability to connect with a
crowd. The exercises and teachings have been developed in
classrooms, workshops and theatres all over the world and the book
is packed with insights from the author, who has worked for over 35
years in a wide variety of venues, from intimate performance spaces
to large-scale sports stadiums.
