Jos Houben – The Art of Laughter

What causes a chuckle? A giggle? A hearty laugh? Renowned actor from Théâtre Complicité and longtime collaborator of Peter Brook presents a hilarious and enlightening exploration of these exact questions.

See what makes you laugh as Houben dissects the mechanics that trigger laughter: facial expressions, the idiosyncrasies of the body, the act of falling down, and the importance of timing.

Winner of the “Total Theatre Award” at the 2007 Edinburgh Festival, The Art of Laughter is a delightful and amusing journey through one of life’s greatest pleasures.
