A little more on the Pathways to Performance Program:

The Pathways to Performance Program is open to performers of all abilities and skill levels. You will develop narrative skills, acting techniques, and stage craft in a team setting that is safe and engaging. Every performer in the program will help shape public performances under the guidance of some of the best independent artists and Directors in Queensland.

As you learn, you perform more often throughout the year in different types of public settings. Each term you will have the opportunity to perform in theatres and public spaces in professional costumes, telling stories you helped to design.

You will also have the opportunity to tour – spreading the joy to Queensland schools and regional communities.

Join us on Thursday mornings for “The Art of Clown and Comedy,” a life-changing, unforgettable, laughter-packed journey of essential performance skills brought to you by Blue Roo Theatre Company

Why Clowning and Comedy?

Because laughter is more than joy—it’s a key to self-expression, freedom, revelation and resilience. In this program, we unlock the magic of laughter to foster a sense of play, expression, and discovery in every performer, verbal and non-verbal

  • Expert Guidance: Learn from Clint’s wealth of experience in the theatre world.
