It invites participants to embrace the absurd, queer, exaggerated, lyrical, and dark, empowering seductive self-expression through playful dance, theatre, and performance.In a safe space where weirdness and failure are celebrated, participants discover and own their “seductive wacko.” This is not about pleasing others but celebrating unique sexual energy as a source of creativity. By exploring the performative nature of sexuality, participants delve into their desires and fears, unlocking boundless artistic inspiration. Being seen and witnessing others in this process fosters profound acceptance and freedom.\n𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐨 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨:With over 11 years in the creative industry, Riccardo combines art direction and visual arts with the playful spontaneity of clowning.

The clown offers a unique perspective—a non-conventional master who shows us how to live life as a comedy, filled with authenticity and joy.With his workshop, participants will explore the clown’s methodology, learning to embrace their true selves by using failures and imperfections as tools for growth. The clown’s honesty in expressing feelings transforms difficulties into opportunities, turning life into an authentic and joyful performance.\n𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐟:With a background in dance and choreography, Daniella developed her practice of voice for movers, focusing on the performance art of improvisation.
