Based on 'Play' as being the fundamental expression of human creativity and the basis of meaningful interaction and problem solving, the workshops encourage a personally relevant and transformative expression for all those who want or need it. Toms' distinct approach focuses on the relationship between the 'Person', 'Character' and 'Artist' in all of us. By understanding, exploring and harmonising the often conflicting nature of these “inner voices”, participants gain a clearer awareness of themselves, their talents and their creative process. The inspiring and challenging workshops are aimed at anyone who wishes to gain a deeper insight into their creativity and abilities, and develop an empowered and liberated stage presence. 1 OSKAR Tom Greder.

  • Interview Ira Seidenstein
    Interview with Ira Seidenstein (IS) by Mike Finch (MF), on behalf of Circus Network Australia Introduction MF- Ira Seidenstein is a highly respected, skilled and experienced clown, performer, acrobat, teacher, mentor and elder. He is originally from Pittsburgh USA, but for many years has been based in Australia. Ira has worked all around the world alongside a virtual Who’s Who of physical, clown and Circus performance from major international luminaries and iconic organisations, to grassroots practitioners and soloists. We are lucky enough to have access to him for this interview about his life, his influences, his methodology, some advice and his hopes for the future. In his own words, “Intuition isn’t only knowing what to do next. It is also not knowing what else to do and having no choice”. MF- Hi Ira, thanks so much for your time. Firstly I want to thank you for offering yourself up to be interviewed. We intend this to be the inaugural interview of a series for Circus Network Australia on Australian Circus people, and I’m glad you will be the first! Let’s start at the beginning. Can you tell us what your childhood was like? IS- Oy vey Maria! It was located in the melting pot of the USA. Pittsburgh is a city with three rivers the Allegheny and Monongahela join to form the Ohio which helps form the Mississippi. There are lots of hills of the Allegheny/Appalachian Mountains. Pittsburgh is surrounded by farms and coal towns populated by ethnic Europeans who were starving in the 1800s.

  • Ezra Lebank and David Bridel, These Legends of Comedy Reveal the Origins, Inspirations, Techniques, and Philosophies That Underpin Their Remarkable Odysseys
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 04:32 09 August 2016 Clowns Clowns: In Conversation with Modern Masters is a groundbreaking collection of conversations with 20 of the greatest clowns on earth. In discussion with clown aficionados Ezra LeBank and David Bridel, these legends of comedy reveal the origins, inspirations, techniques, and philosophies that underpin their remarkable odysseys. Featuring incomparable artists, including Slava Polunin, Bill Irwin, David Shiner, Oleg Popov, Dimitri, Nola Rae, and many more, Clowns is a unique and definitive study on the art of clowning. In Clowns, these 20 master artists speak candidly about their first encounters with clowning and circus, the crucial decisions that carved out the foundations of their style, and the role of teachers and mentors who shaped their development. Follow the twists and turns that changed the direction of their art and careers, explore the role of failure and originality in their lives and performances, and examine the development and evolution of the signature routines that became each clown’s trademark. The discussions culminate in meditations on the role of clowning in the modern world, as these great practitioners share their perspectives on the mysterious, elusive art of the clown. Ezra LeBank is the Head of Movement for the Department of Theatre Arts at California State University, Long Beach. He has published articles in the Journal for Laban Movement Studies and Total Theatre Magazine. He performs and teaches across North America and Europe. Downloaded by [New York University] at 04:32 09 August 2016 David Bridel is the Artistic Director of The Clown School in Los Angeles and the Director of the MFA in Acting in the School of Dramatic Arts at the Uni- versity of Southern California.

    Francisco Vita Roldan (KiKi) Francisco fell into his first job as a children's party clown in 1995 unaware that this first gig would be the beginning of a lifetime journey through clown, comedy and circus. Since, he has studied in over five countries and performed in over 20 throughout Europe, The Middle East, Asia, Canada and Australia, independently and with companies. He is an accomplished traditional juggler learning from Antonio Benitez, The Rogelio Rivelo School and Raul Fernandez Sala Pirueta and performing in Juggling Conventions alongside legends such as Matt Hall and Ivan Pecell. Although now his style is dedicated to a more contemporary form of object manipulation and contact juggling - bringing everyday objects (tables, suitcases, umbrellas) to life and incorporating them in his juggling routines. Francisco has completed intensive studies of clown in the Phillipe Gaulier School in Paris and with Eric De Bont at Bont's International Clown School in Ibiza. He has also done workshops with many other clown and comedy teachers including Loco Brusca, Aitor Bassuri, Gabriele Chame and has undergone one on one character development direction with Ira Stiedenstein and Jango Edwards. Francisco is has been continually touring the world for the past 8 year with his solo street show ‘The TNT Show’ and his duo with his wife ‘Las Cossas Nostra - the show’ and have appeared at major festivals and events around the world.

  • Jango Edwards E Um Corpo Cômico Transgressor André Luiz Rodrigues
    Jango Edwards e um Corpo Cômico Transgressor André Luiz Rodrigues Ferreira* * André Rodrigues é performer, ator e professor. Doutor e Mestre em Artes Cênicas pelo PPGAC/UNIRIO, investiga o diálogo entre arte da performance, grotesco e bufonaria. Website: https://andrerodriguesart.wordpress.com/>. 70 Rebento, São Paulo, n. 8, p. 70-93, junho 2018 Resumo | Este trabalho tem por objetivo realizar a investigação da corporeidade do palhaço como elemento fundamental de expressividade e potência cênica. O artigo tem como base de estudo a análise de obra a partir da observação de um número de palhaço criado e executado pelo palhaço norte- americano Jango Edwards, no espetáculo The Bust of Jango. Artista cômico multifacetado, Edwards coloca em jogo em suas atuações algumas questões importantes sobre a comicidade clownesca, como o grotesco, a transgressão e o embaralhamento entre as fronteiras da arte e da vida. Adquirindo um caráter ridículo e ampliado, a corporeidade do palhaço abre linhas de fuga para ações e visões de mundo capazes de possibilitar, ao intérprete cênico e ao espectador, novas apreensões das relações entre corpo, pensamento e espacialidade. Palavras-chave: Palhaço. Corporeidade. Grotesco. 71 Rebento, São Paulo, n. 8, p. 70-93, junho 2018 Palhaço e inadequação A tipologia cômica do palHaço acompanHa, de forma multifacetada e não linear, a própria História da Humanidade, pois, transcendendo as especificidades de cada ordem social, Há na organização dos Homens o lugar daquilo ou daquele que é risível. Palhaços, bem como mendigos, ébrios e portadores de características excêntricas, são figuras que, por sua inadequação em relação à cHamada “normalidade”, transitam num âmbito marginal das sociedades, sendo, muitas vezes, alvo de cHacota e zombaria.
