Physical Storytelling with Georgina Lamb
About this Event
About the workshop
How do we tell stories without words? How can movement, gesture and physical connection communicate character, emotion and narrative?
In this dynamic, playful and exploratory workshop, director, choreographer and movement director Georgina Lamb invites you to discover the power of the body as a storytelling tool. Through a series of physical exercises, improvisations and collaborative tasks, we'll explore how movement can create characters, build relationships, reveal unexpected stories and bring the imagination to life.
