Artmedia News
==================================================

Welcome to the June 2004 edition of the Artmedia physical
theatre newsletter, a publication with an Australasian focus
and a global perspective. You are receiving this because
you are on the Yahoo Artmedia Physical Theatre News list.

I use the Sponsorship this month to launch my new website
www.alanclay.com, promoting my upcoming book, Angels
can Fly. On this new site I have some sample anecdotes
from the book, and I have a call for those who work as
clowns, and would like to submit an anecdote from their
own experience, to do so for inclusion in the book.

In the Playspace section we have the latest news on the
Clown School this winter in Sydney, on which we still have
one place available, and we also have information on the
next Clown Masterclass in Sydney in October.

Following the October Masterclass I am firming up classes
in Ottawa, Canada, and at MotionFest in Baltimore, USA, in
late October and early November. So look out for more info
in the next newsletter. And let me know if you would like to
organise a workshop in that part of the world at that time.

Remember it does cost us to put out this newsletter, and
so we rely on your support, through advertising, to fund
this. If you value the newsletter, why not budget for some
promotional costs, and ensure your information reaches a
targeted industry market at very cheap rates.

In this light we welcome Circus Monoxide, a contemporary
touring circus company based in Wollongong, Australia, with
a Feature on their search for a General Manager, plus some
Physical Character Development Classes with Alicia
Battestini, the director of Circus Monoxide.

We also have information on a show at NIDA in Sydney,
which is the opening show for the second sitting of the
International Youth Parliament and brings together 30
young artists from Brazil, Chile, Quebec, France, South
Africa and Australia, under the artistic direction of Sue
Broadway.

In the networking, there is a call for help from East Timor's
first Circus School, and also, for those who were interested
in more information on the work of Augusto Boal, after our
mention in the last issue, this month we reprint an excerpt
from the newsletter of the Theatre of the Oppressed, with
a look at the work of the Omniax Drama & Performance
group in Brisbane.

We have an artist call from the International Festival of
Animated Objects in Canada, and MotionFest 2004 has
been announced, amid rumors that it could be the last
of these successful US workshop festivals, so make the
effort to go this year, also because I will be teaching.

And in Spain, Citecorps have information on a corporeal
mime workshop in Barcelona, while in Madrid we have a
call for participants in a Clown Festival. Expressive Feat
Productions seek female aerial dancers In England, and
Hilary Chaplain has news of her work with the Brazilian
Clown Doctors.

In the Noticeboard, a Commedia Dell'Arte performer is
sought for a multicultural workshop in Australia, while
Nimble Arts have info on their Flying Trapeze Workshop
in Vermont, and move quickly if you are a Fallas fire
sculpture artist and would like work in Nottinghamshire,
because the applications close on Monday.

We also have a Junior Drama Fellowship on offer at the
University of Cambridge, and in Brussels the Ecole
Superieur des Arts du Cirque seeks an aerial teacher.

Our update on the Clown Debate last month suggested
that the next opportunity to debate these issues would be
at the Tasmanian Circus Festival early next year, and this
seems to be firming up, and the event will now be held in
late February.

Email the Executive Officer of the Australian Circus and
Physical Theatre Association ( ACAPTA ) if you would
like to participate in the Head to Head Circus and Physical
Theatre Conference, February 22 to 25, 2005, in Tasmania.
e-mail mailto:Catherine.Oddie@jwcoca.qld.gov.au

We aim to provide an avenue of communication for the
physical theatre community, so send us information for
inclusion in this newsletter, and please also forward this
to someone else who may be interested.

Angels can Fly, A Modern Clown User Guide

Alan Clay's latest book, Angels can Fly, will be published
in May 2005, and it promises a mix of fiction, following the
adventures of ten clown characters, plus some personal
clown anecdotes, a total of 50 practical clown exercises,
and some theory on the nature of modern clown.

Promotional eBook list
---------------------------------
On the new site you can also sign up on a list, to receive a
free eBook of Angels can Fly in the MS Reader format, when
the book is launched in May 2005.  Find more information at 
www.alanclay.com/ebook_list.htm

Get Your Clown Story into the Book
---------------------------------
Often a story of personal experience will convey information
better than theorising, and so this book will include anecdotal
sections in each chapter, in addition to the fictional, theory
and exercise sections.

If you work as clown, and want to submit an anecdote for
inclusion in the book, check out the chapter headings and the
example anecdotes at www.alanclay.com/anecdote.htm and
send in a story that might be appropriate, together with a
photo if possible, to anecdotes@artmedia.com.au

Email us with an indication of your interest as soon as
possible. There is of course no guarantee that your item will
be included, but if it is, we promise to correspond on the final
editing and placement. No payment will be made for any item
included, and you assign the copyright to Artmedia Publishing,
but you also ensure documentation of your work, in a book on
modern clown which will be distributed widely to libraries and
theatre schools worldwide.

Complementary Paperback List
---------------------------------
Librarians, Drama School Administrators, and reviewers, etc,
can also join a list to receive a complementary paperback of
Angels can Fly, plus information on discount ordering for their
school or library. www.alanclay.com/library_orders.htm

The venue for our Winter Clown School has been confirmed,
and it will be held at the Flamenco Studio, Unit B5, 1-3
Gladstone St, Newtown, Sydney. We still have one place
available on the course, so contact us ASAP to participate.

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 a yoga warm up, followed by exercises
to develop physical and emotional expression, and impro
exercises to develop comic timing and audience rapport.
This course provides a fun way to approach clown because
of the way we interface the studio work with exploration of
the street as a learning environment, taking exercises from
the studio and working with them at street-cafe's in Newtown.

The school will be led by Alan Clay, who has been performing
for 27 years and teaching clown for over 20 years, including a
recent couple of tours, teaching clown masterclasses in
Canada and USA, New Zealand and Australia. More info at
http://www.artmedia.com.au/Clown.htm For enrolments and
enquiries, to hold a place, or see if space is still available,

Clown Masterclass with Alan Clay, Sydney (3-day), Oct 12

clown, placing an emphasis on rediscovering the sense of play,
the curiosity to explore and the innocence to see things in new
ways. Each day starts with a yoga warm up, followed by
exercises to develop physical and emotional expression, and
improvisational exercises to develop comic timing and audience
rapport. $320 ( earlybird, before August 12 ) Aus$420 ( full ).

Feature - Position Vacant at Circus Monoxide - General Manager
===================================================

Circus Monoxide is a touring contemporary circus company
based in Wollongong, NSW, Australia. We respond
theatrically to the world around us, commenting on the
Australian psyche, condition and perspective. We include
the erotic and political in a show, to which you can bring
your kids.

The General Manager is part of a management team which
shares responsibility for the development and implementation
of the company's artistic and touring program, vision,
strategic direction and business plan, and will report directly
to the Board of Directors. The GM is responsible for financial
management, marketing and promotion, maintaining strategic
partnerships, and administrative functions.

For a copy of the essential criteria and duty statement,
please contact the office during business hours on Australia
02 4285 0066, or email: info@circusmonoxide.com.au 
Applications close 2 July at 5pm.
------------------------------------------------

Physical Character Development Classes with Alicia Battestini,
Circus Monoxide performer/director. Thursday 6:00 ? 8:30pm,
OR Saturday 3:00 ? 5:30pm. Bellambi, NSW, Australia.
mailto:al@circusmonoxide.com.au

No experience necessary. Classes begin week of July 12th.
Really great character work involves hidden skill.  Physical
awareness, lateral thinking, improvisation, and never losing
sight of your inner wally, are the keys to developing this skill. 
In this class we'll be doing exercises in all of these areas. 

The belief that performers need to be self-sufficient, that we
need to be able to create our own work as well as support
each other in the development of new work, is crucial to this
class. Developing your capacity to objectively see and help
shape performance - i.e. your 'outside eye' - will be a focus. 
To this end, we will use each other as sounding boards to
test material.

"Hey, Love receiving the newsletter! East Timor's First Circus
School Needs Your Help! East Timor's first circus school has
recently been set up for the youth of East Timor, to help them
heal the hardship that they have lived through, but also to bring
joy and laughter to all the people of East Timor. The school is
based at the Bibi Bulak theatre company in Dili and so far has
been a big hit with 20 students already performing at the big
independence day celebrations in Dili on May 20th. Yet the
problem is that we are in desperate need of gear of any type
whether that be circus gear, costumes, anything that could
possibly be theatrical, even books and performance videos! So
i'm doing a big call out to anybody interested in helping out, as
any help is greatly needed. So if you have an old trapeze, tutu,
couple of old mats or even just an old book with fantastic circus
photos in it lying under your bed, give us a buzz!" cheers, Annie
Sloman and all at Bibi Bulak circus school, East Timor.

"Dear friends and colleagues, the International Theatre of the
Oppressed newsletter, Under Pressure 17, can be found on the
ITO website. It includes a piece on Forum Theatre and Its Role in
Anti-Bullying Programmes, by Natasha Budd, director of Omniax
Drama & Performance, Brisbane, Australia. In this Natasha says:
'Forum Theatre is a process developed by Brazilian theatre
director Augusto Boal; it begins with the creation of a performance
that reflects the personal experiences of the participant group. In
the case of 'No Hat No Play' this was a series of encounters with
bullying characters. The play is then performed to a larger target
group whom it is expected will identify with the issues presented.
Boal describes this performance as an ?anti model?. In the devising
of the piece it is essential that the protagonist be placed in
oppressive situations and that he or she be forced to submit to the
oppression. The play is then performed a second time. This time,
the audience is encouraged to shout ?stop? when they identify a
moment of oppression. The Joker then freezes the action and
invites individual audience members to take the place of the
protagonist, the opportunity then exist for them to manipulate the
action in order to bring about a more positive resolution. A recent
DETYA study into bullying among children in Australian schools
found that ?bullying usually happens out of sight, away from
teachers and other adults. Peer education not only provides direct
insight into the mechanics of social interaction but also ensures
that this view is accurate. The Joker's role is to encourage praxis
but it is the students themselves who ultimately determine the
viability of an intervention.' We hope you enjoy this issue of the
newsletter." Best wishes, Ronald Matthijssen, Find a link to the
International Theatre of the Oppressed web-site, and the full

"Dear Friends and Colleagues, I've just returned to New York from
Brazil where I was in attendance at the FILO International Theatre
Festival in Londrina, Brazil. I taught Hospital Clowning with three
Clown Doctors from Doutores da Alegria - Thais, Soroya and
Wellington. In case you don't know, I have been working with the
Big Apple Circus Clown Care as a clown nurse entertaining
hospitalized children and their families for the past 16 plus years.
The Brazilian group was started by Wellington Noguiera, who
originally worked with us in NY. We had an incredible exchange
in Londrina - teaching together was an amazing experience. At
the end of the week of teaching, we all participated in a Clown
Cabaret. We were joined by a well loved 82 yr old Circus clown,
Picolino ll, and his partner Fusca Fusca, Xuxu, a well known
street, theatre, circus clown who is also a very well known actor
in Brazil named Luiz Carlos Vasconcelos, Medical Doctors from
Buenos Aires who also work as clowns, and some local clown
doctors from Londrina." Love, Hilary Chaplain.
