Clown Game Theory with Rachel Resnik

Unlock your sense of play and presence onstage through clown-based performance techniques. Clown Game Theory teaches you how to take the clown concept of “play” and apply it directly to live performance, giving you practical tools to get out of your head, take risks, and connect more deeply with audiences.

This workshop is ideal for clown beginners, experienced clowns, improvisers, actors, writers, musicians, comedians, and any performer looking to expand creativity, emotional awareness, and spontaneity onstage.

You’ll learn:

• How to find the game of the moment through authentic emotional response
• How to use audience connection as fuel instead of pressure
• How to discover rather than “plan” funny
• How to fail joyfully and turn mistakes into momentum
