Scenic creation tools in deconstructing stereotypes with a feminist perspective: playing with equity beyond the stereotypes. Questioning our mindset in narrative and characters relationships using the Bechdel test and other tools to help work with stereotypes and gender assumptions.
This workshop is divided in 2 parts/lessons:
BECHDEL IMPRO
What does it mean playing women? Let's talk about the life of one and the quality of their stories and exercise that in our scene work. Using the ideas of the Bechdel test, this class is a practical approach to empower our female characters and how we relae with them. Open for all performers of all genders. As a show format, it rases questions to improvisers and the audience. It is a wonderful exercise for mix casts or only female ones.

DECONSTRUCTING STEREOTYPES
By the idea that stereotypes are memory continents of society, we can see they are a powerful source of information to understand what and why change things. In this workshop our exercises are going to help us look at stereotypes as tools for deconstruct preconceived ideas to find real people in our characters.
Skills: Creating characters in a feminist perspective, deconstructing clichés and playing in a more inclusive way, and empowering narratives and group mind.
Participant Level: All
