"Clown is a fascinating, diverse, complex and exciting
art form, which has existed around the planet for
thousands of years. Like any art form it has to evolve to
stay relevant to the culture nurturing it, and at the same
time, and by its very nature, clown teases and turns
upside down the cultural patterns and boundaries
around us."

Sponsor: CircoArts: It's Showtime in Christchurch, New Zealand
===================================================

CircoArts, New Zealand's only circus skills tertiary provider
is based at Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology
(CPIT). Here's a snippet of recent CircoArts news and events.

Club 37
As the end of the year draws to a close, CircoArts staff and
students are busy rigging gear, donning costumes and
practicing their acts: this is the final curtain call!

In October Year Two students presented Club 37, a slick
and amusing performance set in the 1930s when hula hoops
were new, Zoot suits were all the rage, gangsters cruised
the streets, and music was swinging. Students devised the
show which included a duo aerial hoop performance, a twin
tissue act, swinging trapeze and static trapeze, not to
mention adagio, tumbling, skipping and jazz dance, all of
which made Club 37 a memorable show.

Star Gazing
At the end of every academic year CircoArts students
present an outdoor twilight performance in the CPIT Quad.
Circus under the Stars is a wonderful event that celebrates
the commitment, skill and talent blooming at CircoArts.

This year, twenty one students from both Year One and
Year Two will bedazzle the crowd with aerial acts, comic
characters, acrobatic tricks, juggling and equilibristic
performances. This is one show not to be missed!

Student Success

 

Year Two student Dawn Strindberg (pictured) is among the
21 students performing in Circus under the Stars. Her
lyrical low transitional trapeze work has developed with the
assistance of a CPIT Foundation Grant which enabled her
to travel to Boulder, Colorado where she attended the
Aerial Dance Festival. Originally from Perth, Australia,
Dawn plans to travel to rural communities with the intention
of sharing circus skills with people in remote areas.

Summer School and Street Art Workshops
CPIT's CircoArts Summer School is scheduled to run in
December 2006. Summer School is open to anyone over
the age of sixteen and is the perfect opportunity to develop
specialist skills or sample what CircoArts has to offer. Our
Summer School fee of $13 per course for Permanent
Residents and $32 per course for Non-Permanent
Residents is yet another reason not to miss this fantastic
training opportunity.

Our Street Art courses will run between December and
February and will offer a series of CircoArts courses aimed
at sixteen to twenty-five year olds (however individuals over
twenty-five are welcome). With most courses priced at a
mere $10, these fun workshops will interest young people
considering a future in Circus Arts.

For more information on either Summer School or Street
Art courses log onto: www.cpit.ac.nz/weekendcollegenz
or phone: 03-940 8448.

Second 2006 Application Round
A second application round for entry into the two year
Diploma in Circus Arts has been announced. CircoArts
will accept applications until mid January.

International fees for the 2006 CircoArts programme have
been heavily discounted. Australian students continue to
pay domestic fees while international students will now
pay only $13,000 NZD for the 2006 year.

Places are filling fast so be sure to apply today! Want to

Playspace: Clown Workshop in Sydney with Alan Clay
===================================================

One Week Clown Intensive , February 20th to 24th
(Five Day) Price Buster $400 (by November 15)
Earlybird $500 (by January 10) $600 (full)

The price buster deadline on this 5 day clown intensive
in Sydney, Australia, expires next week, so e-mail: 
clown@artmedia.com.au   asap, if you want a place
held on the workshop at this price.

 

Clown is an art form which has existed for thousands of
years, and undergone a revolution in recent times, as it
made the leap back from circus into theatre, giving birth to
'new clown' and physical theatre. This course takes a broad
view of clown, which allows students room to develop their
own unique style.

Each day starts with an yoga warm up, followed by
exercises to develop physical and emotional expression,
and improvisational exercises to develop comic timing and
audience rapport.

This workshop will also include opportunities for those who
want to create clown performance material. We often have
ideas or images of what we want to do, but we need a
structure to help us develop these. This workshop is
designed to help with this process.

"In the best clown tradition Alan held up a window-mirror for
us to step through and reflect on the patterns, habits and
rituals of our days... It was funny, moving and excellent
theatre."
NZ Herald.

TOTAL THEATRE  - Annie Stainer's School of Physical
Theatre, Perth, Western Australia.

Total Theatre is turning 5 in 2006 and to help celebrate,
we are thrilled to announce the exciting news that Mr
Steven Berkoff is joining us as our International Patron.

Annie Stainer worked with me on 'The Fall of the
House of Usher', which toured Australia (1982), and
for me this was one of the most rewarding experiences. 
Annie is a rare kind of person in the arts and
performance, since she brings to her creations a wide
range of influences and insights and is determined, in
my opinion, to create a theatre that goes beyond the
commonplace and takes us into far deeper areas.
Therefore, the theatre becomes something that gives
us hope, life and inspiration.
(Steven Berkoff, London 05)

Applications are now open for our 2006 intake with first
round auditions being held on the 8th and 9th of
December 2005.

Total Theatre is an exciting and innovative school at the
forefront of Physical Theatre Training. We offer
professional one and two-year intensive performance-
based courses, with an emphasis on physical theatre
and the creation of original work.

The diversity and flexibility of the training allows students
to explore a wide-range of physical theatre performance
skills whilst simultaneously creating a safe and nurturing
environment, in which each individual can develop their
creative vision at their own pace. Training includes:
Creative Movement, Theatre, Mime, Feldenkrais, Mask,
Improvisation, Dance, Circus Arts, Voice, Singing, Text,
Scriptwriting, Stage Combat, Martial Arts, Clowning,
Percussion, Commedia dell'Arte and Aerial Skills.

 

The Director, international performer Annie Stainer has
performed in ensembles with Steven Berkoff, Lindsay
Kemp and David Bowie. For 6 years Annie was Head
of Movement at the Western Australian Academy Of
Performing Arts, School of Theatre. She is an
inspirational visionary and much loved teacher whose
unique approach to the training of the performer has led
to the creation of her highly successful Theatre School.

Students at Total Theatre come from a wide variety of
backgrounds and age groups. Our courses cater not
only for experienced performers and professionals but
also for beginners stepping into the world of performance
for the first time. Our vision here at Total Theatre is to
provide our students with a well-rounded organic training
enriched by their own dreams and passions.

===================================================
Campaign: Freedom of Expression in the Arts in Australia
===================================================

Last week there was an unprecedented gathering of
Arts organisations in Australia to discuss the sedition
provisions in the draft Anti-Terrorism Bill.

This group subsequently made written submissions to
the Government on this matter, arguing for the removal
of the Sedition Provisions in Schedule 7 of the Bill.
Details of the draft submission on Sedition are now
available at  http://ozsedition.blogspot.com/

Since making their concerns known, the Prime Minister
has sought to reassure the Australian people by
asserting that the Bill is not intended to have an impact
on the Freedom of Speech enjoyed by all Australians
and valued as an important part of our way of life. The
Attorney General and other members of Parliament
have subsequently acknowledged a need for a review
of Australia's Sedition Laws, and we welcome the
observations from within the Government that the laws
are poorly drafted, 'obsolete' and 'should be off the
books completely'.

The group remains concerned, however, that the
proposed Sedition Provisions may become law in
advance of this review and propose the following in
order to avoid this possibility.

"We propose in our submission that the sedition
provisions of the Bill, be removed at this stage and
made the subject of a formal public inquiry at a later
date." To support this position and Freedom of
Expression please go to the website
http://ozsedition.blogspot.com/ and register your
name where indicated by 2pm Friday 11 November.

Summary of the Submission
The proposed sedition offences in the Anti-Terrorism
(No 2) Bill 2005 are unnecessary, stifle legitimate
debate, are too broad and are unfair. They pose a real
threat to freedom of expression, including artistic and
creative expression, in our democracy and accordingly
they should be removed from the proposed Ant-Terrorist
Bill in their entirety.

 Arguments about the limits of freedom of expression
in our democracy must not be confused with arguments
about powers that may be necessary to avert violent
terrorist attack. Accordingly, the proposed sedition
offences should be examined, debated and voted on
separately from the other provisions of the Bill.

 If the proposed sedition offences are enacted in any
form, the review of these offences promised by the
Attorney-General should be independent of the
Government; should invite, and allow reasonable time
for, submissions from the Australian public in general
and artists in particular; and its findings should be
publicly available.

"Our Battambang-based local NGO, Phare Ponleu
Selpak, is an artistic centre aiming at rehabilitating
underprivileged youngsters through Circus. So far, our
results are excellent, with already more than 10 months
accumulated international tours in less than three years,
and around 30 professionals earning a living through our
performances. Our school of Circus involves two shifts
of 50 children each, led by three nationally graduated
teachers. To improve even further the training of our
pupils and the final quality of our performances, we are
now in the process of recruiting an International Level
Circus Teacher
. In charge of everyday teaching at our
circus classes as a full-time assignment; this teacher
would oversee the complete circus school curriculum
and fellow teachers. Our ideal candidate should have
a significant history in Circus teaching in the fields of:
Physical Preparation, Acrobatics, Balance, and Aerial
Acrobatics. Wages shall not exceed 1.000usd per
month, which is sufficient for living in Cambodia. He or

term visa and one plane ticket to his home country
once a year; with a possible accommodation on site.

"Dear Alan, Thank you for another great newsletter! I
have a question, please: Does anyone happen to know
of any clowns who play/played the musical saw ? I am
a musical saw player myself, and I am trying to
research the musical saw in the circus world. I have
heard of the Spanish family The Pajares who performed
with the Circo Bulgaro as musical clowns and in their
promo photo they had a saw with their other instruments.
There was also the Italian white face clown 'The Rossyan',
clown Gyula Saly (also Italian I believe), Bonbon- I think
he is Swedish, and American Larry Banner who I believe
had a flea circus - they all played the musical saw, but
that's all I know about them. I don't even know if they are
still alive... I would very much appreciate it if anyone could
help me in any way with info about such clowns, please,
or by directions to where/who I could contact." Thanks
