WEEKEND TRAINING IN CREATIVE ACTIVISM

WEEKEND TRAINING IN CREATIVE ACTIVISM
Clownesque Techniques, Physical Theatre & Political Performance with
Glasgow Kiss

Saturday March 15 & Sunday March 16, 10am - 5pm
Carnival Arts Centre, 34 Albion St, Glasgow
please email me to book a place if you want to come!

throughout the weekend, we are hoping to touch on a variety of
techniques, including elements of the Rebel Clown training, other
clown techniques, physical theatre and perhaps forum theatre. It will
be challenging & is for people who want to explore different ways of
using our bodies and minds for nonviolent civil disobedience and
creative colourful ways of alternative living. And it will be
interactive - not just "us" teaching "you", but us all going through
an exciting group process together. And of course it will be a weekend
full of joy, outrageous silliness and frivolous fun. Bring on the
Carnival!

And the training is only the beginning... It is meant to stimulate an
excitement in creative activism, to be explored further in subsequent
practice. We'd like to develop a think tank on how to effectively
apply these techniques in social, environmental & political activism
(so it's not "just" a theatre workshop!!) - we will be having an open
meeting on this at the end of the workshop.
Let's start now - if you want to take part in the weekend and have any
ideas or hopes about what you want to get out of it, please email us!

If enough people are interested, we could extend the weekend until
Sunday evening or Monday morning to all go out together and putting
play into practice. To be followed up by more weekends like this to go
deeper? - exciting potential!

- please remember to book a place so that we get a rough ideas of
numbers, and please come only if you can make the full weekend
training. if you can't make both days for exceptional reasons, please
contact us.
- the training is absolutely free! Only bring your enthusiasm. If you
need a place to stay in Glasgow overnight, we should be able to
arrange floor space if you let us know in advance.
- please forward to people that you think might be interested
