BASIC REBEL CLOWNING TRAINING
Recruitment officers offer a two day Basic Rebel Clown Training, that takes anybody and everybody on a journey to find their inner clown, release the spontaneous self, learn how to cooperate in a group, to do some very basic physical and narrative improvisation. We also cover the universal rebel clowning techniques. These tools will get you started on setting up your own brigade. This section will be expanding. Feel free to contact us if you want more details. Soon. this will include links to the influences talked about below.
Influences
Your BRCT may differ depending on the recruitment officer.
Sub lieu Tenant Latte's approach
My approach to rebel clowning draws on a variety of influences, Chicago style theatre improvisation to teach spontaneity, cooperation, and improvisation.
Early work in political theatre with Rick Sperling of the Mosaic Theater in Detroit Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed and Image Theater Commedia del'arte for some physical techniques
Fool/Fooling as taught by Michael Loader
The legend of the bouffon from the teachings of lecoq and Phillipe Gaullier passed down and filtered through General Confusion.
To this mix is the influence of De Castro brought via Klepto.
