Clinical Meets Clownical: Behind the Science of the Red Nose

What happens when humour meets healthcare? Join Michael Christensen, also known as Dr. Stubs, for an engaging look behind the scenes of healthcare clowning, a field he helped pioneer over four decades ago.

As founder of the internationally acclaimed Big Apple Circus Clown Care Unit, Christensen transformed the role of professional clowns in paediatric hospitals and inspired healthcare clown programmes around the world, including Switzerland's Theodora Foundation. Through stories, humour and personal experiences, he explores how laughter, compassion and human connection can make a meaningful difference in healthcare settings.

This event will be held in Englis. 

Tickets will be available as of end of September.
