ABOUT WORKSHOP

This 4-hour workshop will be a rigorous introduction to some movement- and body-based techniques to heighten the actor's use of the body in theatrical art. Participants will learn preparatory vocal and physical forms ('warm ups') for individuals and an ensemble. In addition, the group will play within structured improvisations to increase the actor's conscious use of space, time, and physical form.
