Flash Theater Training - Mime For the 21st Century


Every "Next Step" training has a unique selection of classes.

We do focus on some "main thought processes" when it comes to writing material and physical communication (mime) at each of the workshops, but we also provide about 60% new material at each workshop. This is why some clowns come back year after year for a "refresher" on our main concepts and also to learn new techniques.

We are thrilled to have Ben Christensen, joining Jeff McMullen and I, for part of this Next Step Workshop. Jeff and I are the primary instructors, but Ben will be teaching the unique writing technique which is called "Flash Theater" which was pioneered by Julie Goelle and Avner Eisenberg at the Celebration Barn Eccentric Workshops. This technique is something you can add to your programs to provide a unique entertaining experience for your audience.

It's kind of hard to describe, but once you see it, you'll LOVE it!

Here's an online example of one of the Celebration Barn participants performing a flash theater piece. It's called "Mime For the 21st Century" by Joel Jeske.
