Nat Kennedy - Mother Courage 2019

Hello!

Originally from Liverpool, I am a bit of a clown to be honest. I earn my keep in the 'Big Smoke' by performing, directing and making theatre and film. Recent directing credits include The Cluedo Club Killings at the Arcola and Kings Head Theatre. 

​

Having recently graduated from the MA Theatre Lab at RADA I am a diverse and open performer who loves collaborating. I bring fun and a positive energy into the rehearsal and performance space. 

​

I love to create a sense of fun from the clown art form and colour taking inspiration from the likes of Roberto Matta’s surrealist pieces. I love his use of colour and shape, but also the way he draws inspirations from his architecture background while making use his sense of flow. I’m passionate about maintaining a flow and using improvisation as a starting point while keeping the play and game ongoing, I believe this is essential for any genre of work as it is the heartbeat of the work which pulsates through the audience and performers.

Flow Theory​

(1) challenges and skills are balanced, enabling the establishment of (2) clear goals with (3) immediate feedback. These dimensions allow for (4) the merging of action and awareness, a level of involvement that creates (5) a sense of control, (6) excludes distractions from consciousness, and (7) eliminates self-consciousness. This generally coincides with (8) a distortion of one’s sense of time. Finally, the experience is described as (9) ‘autotelic’ or enjoyable in itself.
