ExpressYourselF workshops
As part of the ExpressYourselF season, Mr & Mrs Clark will be hosting workshops in developing your ideas as a performer. We will work together to support the seeds of ideas and offer constructive feedback and advise as to how to make your idea into an ExpressYourselF performance piece. Wear comfortable clothes; bring pen and paper, and most importantly- Bring an open mind! These will be held on the first three Saturdays in February
Mr & Mrs Clark are regulars on the performance circuit creating their own theatre and cabaret shows to delight and provoke. They use music, dance and a dark slice of comedy to entice the viewer into a world of play and participation. Described as performance mavericks, the Clarks were nominated for the Amnesty Freedom of Expression Award for their show Smash It Up.
