Jango Edwards 10th Annual Clown Master Class
“Performance d’Acteur Festival” Cannes – France
June 4 to 12 – 2004
This year we will focus on the creation and performance of :
“The CANNES Magical Mr. E Detour”
An ensemble animation based on a fictitious history of the city.
The exercises and training will concentrate on developing this concept.
The Magical Detour is designed as an interactive guided tour in around the
city of Cannes. Members of the Master Class, class instructors and
additional artists will form animation teams, appearing in designated
activity points on the tour route. The audience will both watch, and
participate in, the presentation. The tour will be open to the general
public and will be presented in the final days of the workshop.
To achieve this goal, you will work as a Clown Performer in an ensemble with
other professionals. You will learn how to relate to the audience in
unpredictable and spontaneous situations, to improvise and to adapt, in
order to give the gift of laughter to an unsuspecting public. You will
explore the role of the comic actor as a social warrior, laughter terrorist
and mercenary of humor. You will be come a "Knight of the Clown Table" - a
red nose his armor; a smile his weapon; injustice and tyranny his enemy - on
a crusade to confirm hope and promote global freedom. To some it may seem a
cliché that "The world is a stage and each must play his part", but for the
clown it is the truth.
As well as various professional performers who will be guest teaching from
time to time, The Cannes Master Class Dream Team assisting me this year

musicians and clown actors:

Sin certainly yours, Mr. E - Jango Edwards
The annual "Clown Theory Master Class" has a unique history. From 1971
through 1990 Jango Edwards developed a method for students to explore comic
formulas, rediscover the art of clowning and embrace its social value.
Through research, education and an open exchange of selected improvisational
exercises, comedy styles, games and acting methods, shared with other clown
technique instructors, Jango developed a "Clown Theory" workshop based on a
series of three ascending parts.
The success of the "Clown Theory" series created the need for a more
personalized and intensive training workshop for the professional clown
performer. From this demand the "Clown Theory Master Class" was founded and
developed by Jango Edwards together with Peter Ercolano and Nana Sapey. A
group of international instructors were enlisted, each specialized in a
specific comic technique. They function as a comedy dream team, offering a
multi lingual course.
Since the "Clown Theory Master Class" was inaugurated in 1995 at the "First
International Clown Festival" in Leukerbad, Switzerland it has been
conducted annually in numerous international events in France, Germany,
Spain, Italy, Austria, Holland, India, Brazil and the United States. Each
year we present a different aspect of the clown art, so that the class is
always a new experience in the learning process, both for students who have
attended previous master classes as well as for first time initiates. Over
the last years the Master Class themes have been:
1999 – in Cannes we presented a full stage musical "Hollywood Express"
produced during the 7 day class session.
2000 - teams of actors created and performed selected street theater events
including the surprise attack on the Cannes Croissette bathers by Africa's
one and only all white tribe "The Fucawees", a 10.000 cream pie fight and a
3 hour safari expedition to uncover and capture the world’s only "Singing
Palm Tree".
2001 - at the "Montreux Festival du Rire" the focus was on an animation
ensemble production.
2002 + 2003 we expanded our faculty of international instructors and in
doing so we were able to offer a unique experience to class members. In
addition to the classes by individual instructors and team teaching events,
each master class student was assigned a theme to write, film, cast and
direct a 1 minute comedy short based on the cosmic law of comedy, the 3 gag
routine.
This year again the actors will be required to attempt the same assignment
but with a different theme. It must be a political ad campaign created for a
fictional political party or candidate (for example: America – you can not
pray in school but let’s put a bible in every hotel). As part of our
permanent curriculum we will continue to offer each student one on one
private master class sessions with an individual instructor.
