You just found the Ha-Ha. Keep going!
After the clowns are discovered, they can begin to make a mess together in gleeful pandemonium. Students in this workshop will begin to work in groups (families, duos and trios), create clown numbers, and develop solo material. Admission is open exclusively to those who have taken clown or who have studied with Christopher Bayes previously.
