Artmedia News
==================================================
Welcome to another edition of the physical theatre newsletter from
Artmedia in Sydney, a publication with an Australasian focus and
a global perspective, now reaching 8,000 subscribers worldwide,
and published in the middle of each month.
In the features, Aerialize, Sydney Aerial Theatre, promote their
exciting new aerial & music event, Big in Japan - a daring, genre
defying exploration of music, dance, circus and theatre, which
opens at the Newtown Theatre next week.
Also in the features, we publish a new excerpt from my book
'Believers in Love', with more American reviews, which have been
so good, that I will now be touring literary festivals in the USA
and Canada next year and, while I am there, performing at some
comedy, street theatre, and fringe festivals in Canada.
While I am in North America, I would also like to teach, where
possible, so if you, your organisation, or theatre group, would
like to organise a workshop, please find more information below
in the Playspace section of the newsletter.
We don't usually carry show promotion in the networking section,
because we get so many emails promoting performances from all
over the world, but instead we encourage those interested in
getting an international profile for your show, plus connecting with
dedicated local industry people where-ever you are, to budget for
a Aus$50 feature to promote it, like Sydney Aerial Theatre.
However in the networking this month a few show promotions
sneak in, including Touch Compass with their spectacular aerial
work in Auckland, and New York physical comedienne Hilary
Chaplain bringing her plain-clothes clown show for adults to the
Melbourne Fringe Festival, while Prompt Theatre in Sydney
present a rude, funny and fearful show.
Also in the networking we have information on MotionFest East,
a professional development conference for variety performers in
USA, bodyworkers are sought in Alice Springs, and information
is sought on the growth of the worldwide market in circus arts
and physical theater in Hawaii.
Bob Burton offers the chance to experience the freedom power
and the fun of uncovering the 'ape within' in Melbourne, and the
Internet Theatre Bookshop gives Artmedia site visitors direct
access to the most comprehensive Catalogue of plays and
theatre books in the world.
We aim to provide an avenue of communication for the growing
physical theatre community worldwide, so please send us info for
inclusion in this newsletter. Details of our web-site and newsletter
advertising deals are also at the bottom of this page.

Repeated Lessons
Sax and Sarah were standing beside a pool of water at a
pedestrian crossing and a car cut the corner a little too closely,
spraying them lightly with water. They burst into laughter from
the shock.
"Did you see that?" Sax exclaimed. "That car just sprayed us
with water!"
Sarah was moving away as her father spoke. Out of the corner
of her eye, she saw a bus approaching.
Sax brushed the water off his clothes. "I can't believe that," he
said, unable to let go of his surprise.
The next moment the bus cut even closer than the car, and a
big splash of water drenched him, while Sarah managed to jump
out of the way.
He looked at her, the water dripping off him, and she grinned.
"Do you believe it now?" she asked.
"Novelist Alan Clay breaks the mould of traditional romance to
make it an art of creation, in Believers in Love. The light tone of
the narrative belies the profound observations of life, art and love.
Believers in Love is a powerfully creative work, with prose that
sings like poetry. Beautifully told and evocatively rendered, this
novel comes very highly recommended." www.wordweaving.com

- Canada and America : July, August, September, October
The following workshops are available, depending on the skill
level of participants:

develop audience rapport and clown skills. A good way to
break through the inhibitions we often have at the start of
clown work and to challenge ourselves through fun exercises.
* Larrikin Clown - A contemporary Australian approach to
the clown art form, exploring the freedom of playfulness and
irreverence, and the benefits of 'not knowing' and 'not caring'.
* Playspace Masterclass - A class exploring the physical and
irreverent approach to clown developed over twenty years at
Playspace Studio, emphasizing play-building performance
material, and developing the intuitive skill of timing.
e-mail training@artmedia.com.au if you, your organisation, or
theatre group, would like to organise a workshop. Depending on
the tour itinerary it needn't cost very much, and Alan is open to
deals in kind, and those which also benefit the host organisation.
