About the Residencies Each month, a different Brighton Clown School practitioner offers four weekly classes of their own teaching. The course centres the artist-practitioner and their own approach to making physical comedy and physical theatre, rather than a specific practice, technique or genre. The course is firmly rooted in pedagogical rigour. As such, students shall leave the skills residency having achieved clearly defined learning outcomes that shall be communicated at the start of the course. This course content will include: clown physical theatre play ensemble approaches to devising Course structure Students will get the most by attending all classes. However it is possible to register to attend on an ad-hoc basis. Bookings close end of August.
