HELLO FUN SEEKER!

The Unquenchable Quest for AuthenticityHello, I am Alicia Gonzalez and let's kick this off with a little honesty.I was always that nosy, inquisitive soul, digging into people's stories. As an actor, I swam in the deep waters of human emotions, chasing the elusive essence of storytelling. But, deep down, I hungered for more—something that would let me be truly me, without any pretense. The answer? A wild, unpredictable expedition into the funny world of clowning!
My journey took me to Europe, where croissants are indeed breakfast food (who can resist those flaky delights?). It was also where I stumbled upon the authentic, side-splitting universe of clowning. Here, absurdity and authenticity waltz hand in hand, no masks (except for the red nose!), no pretensions. I uncovered that clowning is like theatre’s wonderfully unhinged sibling, a place where you can connect with people's hearts without uttering a word. |

Alicia Gonzalez has been an inspiration. Her approach is unique and valuable. I feel privileged every time I attend one of her paying events, as it is money well spent.

This Clown Lab was an incredible gift, both personally and creatively. Biggest thanks to Alicia for her expert guidance. It was such a privilege having the opportunity to meet and explore with a whole new group of like-minded performers on Zoom. With grateful thanks!!

Thank you so much for pushing me out of my comfort zone. The class pushed me to be more comfortable with myself and with being vulnerable which is something I never was able to do before. Never thought that would be something I got out this class but I'm so happy I did. The class was so much fun.

I wanted to thank you for working with my student the other day. He was able to gain so much knowledge from you and has been re-inspired to work on his performance. I will definitely love to have you come in again to work with more of our students.

Alicia Gonzalez is a brilliant workshop facilitator who effectively engages participants and fosters their ability to play even across the difficult digital medium. Her provocations are imaginative and instil inspiration within every clown to embrace their silly side.

The Enigma of AuthenticityAh!, the clown! Nature's most authentic and resilient creation.Let's talk about the enigma of authenticity, those moments when you drop the act and show your true colours. These moments are golden opportunities for hilarity and genuine connection. Those who truly excel at life are the ones who can throw off the cloak of seriousness, crack a joke, and turn life's lemons into a feast of laughter.
The clown is like that one friend who always bounces back from life's curveballs with a grin and a silly dance. The secret? Authenticity always takes centre stage. We all need a little more clowning around, not just at school or work but in every corner of our lives. Life's too short not to embrace your true self, don a red nose, and celebrate your quirks! |
