Clowning Around with Chipping Norton Theatre

Feb 7, 2025

Theatrical specialists from Chipping Norton Theatre came to deliver a series of workshops for Cokethorpe First Form to learn from and enjoy. This lucky year group got to experience practical seminars on how to expand characterisation skills and how to develop vocal techniques, as well as an exciting workshop in ‘silent clowning’.

This was a highly enjoyable afternoon, with pupils learning a broad range of exercises and techniques, resulting in enthusiastic participation and courageous physicality across the year. This was an invaluable experience for the First Form, as they start to prepare for their end of year scripted performance in The Shed.

We are grateful to the members of Chipping Norton Theatre for the innovative and engaging tuition and look forward to the next time that we will welcome them to participate in the Cokethorpe Drama course as part of our developing relationship.
