About the Book

Using the techniques and insights of clowning to improve and expand the scope of classical actor training, this book draws on original workshops and research to provide practical clowning exercises to develop wider acting practice in interesting and innovative ways.

Starting with practical workshops, the book offers guidance and explanation to key concepts in clowning including the dynamics of clown-audience relationship, improvisation, movement and voice, offering fresh and inspiring angles from which to view classical actor training.

Written by Jon Davison, a lecturer and practitioner in clowning who has practised and trained at École Philippe Gaulier, Institut del Teatre de Barcelona, Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, London, and Rose Bruford College, London, The Clowning Workbook for Actors and Performers is part of the acclaimed Theatre Arts Workbooks series and features its characteristic blend of student-focused exercises complemented by pedagogical tips for teachers.
