Schools!
Happily, they take up a lot of my time.
As direct result of my work with Speech Bubbles at London Bubble Theatre, I decided I wanted to spend every day (term time only), for three years, in a primary school, so now I am sometimes a Teaching Assistant as well as a clown performer and teacher- I can’t put in to words how much I love it!.
And now...WINSTON CHURCHILL MEMORIAL TRUST are funding me with a fellowship to research how the skills of the clown- in particular the hospital or humanitarian clown- might be applied in school settings. In April 2019 I’m off to Guatamala, Argentina and NYC to meet the clowns who have made this healing art the law!!!!
I will return to my beloved Moulsecoomb Primary School and share my findings about the power of laughter, play, connection and joy with my community there.
