creating roofs for performance

RE-SHAPING RITUALS AND PERFORMANCE


Workshop proposition:
the work will focus on:
rhythm, image, form, and energy.


Through the exploration of individual (inner and social) and collective rituals and the expression of inner archetypes, we will arrive to the understanding of our own oppressions, boundaries, and identities.
By retelling our own selves, the stories that compose us, and projecting our bodies into space, we will build the scratch or first draft of a collective site specific performance based on the explored material.

AIMS:
1. To offer tools for participants to develop body awareness and body language, to get in touch with emotions and to learn how to express creatively their presence on stage.
2. To learn how to build a character and set up a scene.
3. To learn how to learn and deliver lines motivating research as well as creative writing.
4. To create a space for the group of free expression and experimentation without being judged in a work setting that cares for the process as much as for the result.
5. To create a collective presentation and present it to an audience.
6. To learn how to work in a team where each individual has the same importance.
7. To develop and encourage the expression of subcultures in London.



Plan: Will be revised according to the number of participants and the number of sessions to be delivered.

Setting line:

Preparation: first sessions will focus on physical, vocal and emotional training.

Process: this sessions will focus on creating an individual or collective performance.

Conclusion: to be delivered.
