Soft Clown Jam
A playful exploration of physical comedy, sensitivity, and earnestness. This is a space to experiment, take creative risks, and connect with others in front of an audience. Whether you're a seasoned performer or trying something new, join us for an evening of laughter, absurdity, and artistic discovery.
Performers are invited up in small groups to improvise together, guided by live prompts from LA-based clown and director Natasha Mercado (as seen on The Joe Schmo Show and [adult swim]).
All are welcome! Everyone is invited to come hang out to watch and/ or perform for any and all of it.
Bio:
Natasha Mercado is an actress, director, producer, writer and theatre arts educator— but always a clown. You can see her on Adult Swim, Amazon, HBO, TBS and stages across LA. She created “Send in the Clowns”, the first monthly clown show at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre and is touring her award-winning solo show “Tree” —which was called “one of LA’s Top Ten Shows” and “a must see” by Stage Raw and the Times Colonist. She is also a teaching artist for the Unusual Suspects whose mission is to champion those most needed to be heard by mentoring youth to write and perform their stories by using theater. She has virtually taught adults and children at Stomping Ground Comedy Theatre along with a workshop called “Playful Mindfulness” sponsored by the National Alzheimer’s Association to implement improv into the world of caregiving. In 2020, she was named an “Emerging Content Creator” by the National Association of Latino Independent Producers. She was a director and producer for branded events at UCB and brought customized comedy programs to groups across the country including improv, sketch, storytelling and public speaking intensives.
“I found that the concepts introduced in Natasha’s [class] add an extra dimension to any creative field and the experience of life in general. I feel liberated, empowered, and awakened from the exercises we did and am forever changed.” —Elora L., 2021 Student
