Introduction to Professional ClowningThe Ohio College of Clowning ArtsThe Ohio College of Clowning, Ohio’s premier clown training center, announces an Introduction to Professional Clowning. This session is Saturday, August 23 from 9:30-11:00 AM at the College’s new home Musica, on Maiden Lane in Akron, OH. Professor Robert F. Kreidler says, “The purpose of our session is to inform students of what it takes to become a professional entertainer using the clowning arts.” “Mention the word clown,” said Kreidler “and folks think of a colorful person making balloons. We train students to be actors who professionally entertain audiences. In our Introduction to Clowning we help attendees understand what is involved in training in the clowning arts. They meet our staff and faculty and we give them open access to our graduates and let them decide for themselves if what we offer is for them.” The complimentary session includes continental breakfast and will give those in attendance ample opportunity to explore the entire spectrum of professional clowning from curriculum, faculty, to the post graduation experience. The Ohio College of Clowning Arts recently acquired a new name as part of the settlement of a dispute with Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Combined Shows, Inc. “The dispute settled to the satisfaction of both parties,” noted Professor Kreidler “allows us to link our future with our nineteen year past.” The essentials: LOCATION: Musica, 21 Maiden Lane, Akron, OH 44308 TIME: 9:30 – 11:00 AM DATE: Saturday, August 23, 2008 WHO: Anyone interested in becoming a professional entertainer using clowning arts.
