I am really happy for you because I think it is a really good fit - you just seem to me to have the "right stuff" for this - and you know I know whereof I speak!<BR/><BR/>And since you are being taught by a pro, I don't have to worry about you becoming a "greaseball"! (Ask Angel what that means - he'll know.)<BR/>Looking forward to hearing about your character explorations.<BR/>Chris B from FloridaChris Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03798446494715565700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18472575.post-40502526131160748852009-04-05T09:13:00.000-07:002009-04-05T09:13:00.000-07:00After deliberation and consultation with my advise...After deliberation and consultation with my advisers, this no-talent girl went to clown school. When folks ask you, "Why Clown?" you can share the the advice that I received from one of my favorite clowns, Steffon Moody, that clinched it for me and sent me off to school:<BR/><BR/>"Clown is like...infinite. It is probably the least respected of the performance arts (after mime of course), but probably the most difficult to truly do well. Becoming clown is actually becoming yourself...which is no easy trick. It's the opposite of acting. It's vulnerability, pure reaction, honesty and social presence. <BR/>"If you have the inkling...go for it! Just be open. Don't try to do it right. Make Failure your bread and butter and you'll be fine, because that's what a clown lives on."Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14035786919484620435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18472575.post-61109158630434685312009-04-04T17:19:00.000-07:002009-04-04T17:19:00.000-07:00Congrats Jeff!
