IMPRO : Comedia Delate
Well, I never could spell...
On Tuesday we did the first of two workshops on CD with Lisa, a friend of Greg's who is a clown (Jean le Coq and so on - that must be a real suasage factory, I know so many people who've been ;).
She took us through a little history, and then some clown stuff like the 7 energy levels, and then we did some stuff with a Balinese full mask. Then we did some masks which were just face scrunches but we had to keep them that way for the whole scene - the 'cheat's' mask :) Finally we did some Pantaluni (and Pantaluna) stuff.
It was really interesting. Strange how one feels liberated when the mask goes on - you become posessed by the mask, or maybe just freed from your anxieties because the audience can't see 'you'.
I am really looking forward to next week
