PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
“One of the funniest, most inspiring, gorgeous, and love-filled workshops I have ever experienced. Kendall’s coaching, direction and inquiry are an art form in themselves.” -- L.G.
“Kendall Cornell’s clown workshop was just what I needed. I felt safe, light hearted and ready for anything! She is one of the most genuinely present people I have met and she embodies a profound sense of compassion and wisdom. We laughed, learned and we were all very funny!” - G.V.
“Beautiful and funny can be effortless. Kendall dissolves myths about women and comedy before your very eyes and most important, in your brain. What freedom!” -- K.T.
“Kendall Cornell has one of the keenest clowning eyes I have seen. She is gentle and pushes you at the same time. She is able to get the best from everyone and lead them through the learning process in a clear and insightful way. Clowning with all women was a great freedom and I can only say thank you to her for realizing that and bringing it to the rest of us. Run, do not walk to one of her workshops.” -- I. J-F.
“Kendall is a brilliant teacher. I really experienced alchemy in her workshop as she manifested the clown in each of us. I can’t wait to work with her again.” -- V.L.
“Spending two days with a group that not only encouraged but celebrated my inner silliness was cathartic. I want more!” – J.S.
“What is it to be a funny, touching, really good clown? Kendall Cornell’s workshop is where to learn what it takes. Under her skillful and patient direction, the student (whether practicing artist or otherwise) comes closer in mind and body to this fun-filled, yet serious and demanding performing art. Enlarging and inspiriting for all.” -- L. P.
“Kendall has the ability to pick out that little spark in each student and turn it into a fire…. I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time!” -- G.S.
“Kendall’s clown workshop is a great way to meet your limits, feel really uncomfortable, then laugh at them and creatively stretch them further. From seasoned performers to the non-performers, everyone has something to give and something to learn. Kendall has a gift of keeping it real.” – D.L.
“I was totally enchanted with the amazing and talented women in the workshop, in awe of Kendall who helped each of us work on what was fundamental to advancing our work – which ranged from the real basics to very nuanced issues of timing, dealing with flopping, and more. I was ecstatic to find there is more playfulness and humor inside me than I knew…. I expect I will be continuing to discover the value of this workshop for a long time to come!” -- M.H.
“Kendall, It’s inspiring on so many levels to watch you throw your twinkle dust on the women who take your workshop. I feel like I get as much out of watching the other women tread the magical space of clown as I do being thrown into the void myself.” -- J.K.
“The most difficult character in comedy is that of the fool, and [s]he must be no simpleton that plays that part.”
-- Cervantes
