Call it comedic anarchy.
Call it dumb, funny, fierce, raw…
But whatever you do… DON’T CALL IT CLOWN
This workshop will demand your heart, your guts, and all your fluids. We will see how funny you can be when you give it all you've got. We will learn about your unique connection to the audience, your special brand of vulnerable ferocity, and the deep art you are capable of.
Connect with your audiences like never before, and make them love you forever.
In this 2-day, 10-hour intensive plus class showcase, expect the following!
A deeper connection to and understanding of your audience
Personalized feedback (and plenty of it).
Discovery and exploration of your "sweet spots": unique ways that you move/be (emotional/physical states) that your audience especially enjoys.
More understanding of what "stage magnetism" means for you, and how to really harness your performative power.
The beginnings of new characters and sketches.
More wildness, more bravery, more vulnerability.
Interpretive Dance.
Laughing a lot.
This workshop is ideal for improvisers, clowns, stand-up comedians, actors, movers, and anyone who wants to be more magnetic, funny, or brave in front of others than they currently are.
What Participants Have Said:
"Deanna is like a sculptor. She molds your talents, quirks and insecurities into a character you can play through."--Estela
"Deanna creates an incredible environment of trust and honesty which allows you to really go there, to the depths, the weird, dark and zany places. She has a great eye and won't let you hide or foster old patterns. Sometimes I feel like I'm a child in front of my siblings, free to go wild."--Krista
"Deanna is uncanny at drawing genuineness and comedy out of every single person." --Andy
"I am deeply impressed with Deanna’s ability to balance professionalism and organized classes with complete fluidity and a go-with-the flow atmosphere necessary for such intimate and personal explorational work. I just can’t say enough good things. She has an uncanny ability to support each individual’s personal work and journey in whatever way they need in the moment."--Paul
