SURPRISE!
Lauren
Silver
How
does a girl with social and anticipation anxiety enjoy a surprise
party?
Lauren
invites you to find out, in a show packed full of party games and
hopefully no panic attacks. SURPRISE! is an interactive clown
show that looks at how we can confront anxiety, overcome fear,
and find freedom from panic through laughter.
‘I
suspect we’ll see more of Gaulier-trained Lauren Silver who
has a nice line in comic grotesques.’ – Chortle
‘Striking’
– Evening Standard
‘Charismatic
performance’ – Guardian
‘Her
rapport with the audience is tremendous fun.’ – British Theatre
Guide
Work in
development
'Speaking to a psychologist last week with regards to the
Research and Development of my show he explained that there is an
ongoing struggle to understand Anxiety. The dominant thinking is
to understand it as a Disease i.e. comparable to physical disease
in that it can be modified by using medication, has identifiable
causes and pattern of difficulties, but there is no clear cause
of sequence with Anxiety; it doesn’t respond to medical
intervention well (the drugs have side effects and are not
useful) as unlike Depression, it isn’t down to a chemical
imbalance...'
Lauren Silver discusses some of the issues
from the performance in her blog - click here to read more
