The use of music to build a character and/or storyline, music/ soundtrack as a tool that makes a performance stronger.'
The workshop is being delivered against a backdrop of Queer Clowning, and there are different approaches to this style and it is good to have an understanding of these which will add depth to performances.
Rose will give insight into her version of 'Queer Clown' with lectures, discussions and performance.
NB / This workshop is about using music as a soundtrack in creating a performance and not a lip-sync class.
