MetaWORKSHOP:

HIDING FOR REVEALING vol 1

 Play through character masks

September 2021 / 3.-5.9.
Enrollments by  20th of August!

KEY WORDS

Character mask, movement theatre, physical action, feelings and emotions, 

improvisation, storytelling without words


AIMED FOR

Professionals, students and amateurs interested in masks and physical theatre. No need for previous mask theatre experience.


DESCRIPTION

The focus of the workshop is on acting through character masks: human caricatures that amplify the intentions and emotions of the character. We will discover how the expression of the rigid full mask is changing and transforming according to the movement, breath and emotional state of the actor. 

In the first phase of the work we study our own personal habits and mechanisms to move and react. The aim is to become more conscious of one's manners and to increase the range of expressive capacity of the performer. The second phase is dedicated to practicing specific elements of the mask work, such as gesture, focus, rhythm and timing of the action-reaction process.


TEACHER

After graduating from Accademia Teatro Dimitri (Switzerland) in 2009 he has worked in over 20 countries around the world with remarkable physical theatre companies such as German Familie Flöz, Swiss Utopik Family and his own theatre company Teatro Insonne based in Tuscany, Italy.
