So, I want to start a social training party thing....for us clowns!
The idea is to make a regular social get together, in the spirit of clowning. To practice, play, do drills, put together acts, clown around, and just hang out, and have a good time.
So i am turning to you, the clowning community, for some input.
1. How often do you think it should be? monthly? semi-monthly? weekly?
2. Where should it be held? I can probably find space for it in the Vulcan, but i wonder if that is the best venue for it, it might be nice to have it where people can venture out and interact with an impromptu "audience" aka, people on the street.
3. When should we have the first one?
Lemme know!

Sat, June 28, 2008 - 2:05 PMMonthly would probably be best for everyone's schedules, and it makes it a little more special I think. Or at least easier to set the time aside. Though semi-monthly might not be too bad.
Personally I'm all for the East Bay ;-) -

Sat, June 28, 2008 - 9:21 PMI help run a circus skill share every other Wednesday night. So, semi-monthly would be optimal.

Re: Bay Area Clowning Jam!
Tue, July 8, 2008 - 7:49 AMI live in a warehouse in Downtown Oakland where I have been trying to get a circus skill share going (which is not turning out to well due to lack of motivation and help), but I would be more than willing to open it up again for something like this.
...just throwing that out there...
Oh, and I agree that monthly meetings would be grand.
Sounds fun, and I'm looking forward to getting together!

Re: Bay Area Clowning Jam!
Wed, August 13, 2008 - 12:58 PMNo clue about anyone in LA doing this.
You should start one.
All you need is a location, and to schedule it.
You should get in touch with cirque bezerk.
