ACTORS MOVEMENT- EXPLORE TRANSFORMATION THROUGH PHYSICALIT

Expression is a vital part of communication. The body speaks and reveals our thoughts, impulses and actions. We listen, move and feel in 3-dimensions. We are “moved” to move. We do this instinctively throughout our lives, but as actors we need to be mutable enough to express the movement of others. Transformation. And through imagination and the use of our senses, ‘play ‘ different scenarios, so that the given circumstances of plays and scenes are accurately inhabited.

These three sessions will introduce the actors to the fundamental principles and techniques of movement:

Breath, Spine, Space, and the Gravity Swing and Physical Listening.

The afternoon session actors will explore intention and action and interpretation through the use of gesture and space and movement qualities. This will involve partner work, ensemble and scenario work. On the third day, we will share a short piece of our work to explore movement into action and story- working with some text.

This is a unique opportunity to encounter learning how to “speak” with your body, action and space to explore the inherent expression in your own body and the stories we can tell.
