PHYSICAL THEATRE

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

The main goal of this workshop is explore all kind of physical manners and habits on human beings. In this workshop participants will think non-verbal actions and how they can show everything on the stage without a real spoken language. We will start for example create characters from animals, elements and visual images. Of course we will continue and do basic pantomime, cause theatre is magic and through pantomime you can show everything. In this workshop we will also use some stage fighting to learn the rhythm of reactions. There is always an action and re-action. Main question is how to react to another actor and show it precisely to the audience.

The only person who's butt is sexier than mine – is Kimmo!
