Episode #35 with Garry Starr (AKA Damien Warren-Smith)

This week we welcome the absurdly talented Garry Starr, otherwise known as Damien Warren-Smith onto the show. We talk about the importance of allowing for vulnerability while performing, embracing the inner child, audience participation, setting up his audiences to succeed, the joys of going into the world and deliberately being the idiot, leaning into the fool, masks, creative control, performing naked on stage, crafting the shows and character of Garry Starr, living in London, and we find out what really happens at Clown School! Whenever you see a Garry Starr show, you'll immediately want to go again and again and again, and we did just that for Greece Lightning during the Melbourne Comedy Festival. Combined we went 6 times!  Damien will be performing Garry Starr: Greece Lightning for the duration of Melbourne Fringe over the course of October. We would highly recommend everyone see Garry perform whenever they get the opportunity. You will not regret it!
