The 2-day workshop explores the concept of actorâÂÂs coordination, which unifies rhythm, voice and movement. Ideal for those using their body as the key element in the theatrical devising process, the training incorporates the body into voice, song and text work. It also contributes to the classical actorâÂÂs technique, theatre or film, by awakening the sense of internal and external rhythm, working with physical impulse, spatial awareness and focus. For performance professionals, the workshop offers a unique opportunity to examine how the body, voice and imagination can be used to find the new sources of creativity.
This workshop is a culmination of Rafal Habel's 13 years of research with Teatr Piesn Kozla (Song of the Goat Theatre), one of the most exciting and innovative Avant-garde theatre companies in Poland and beyond.
Suitable for actors, dancers, performers, directors, university & drama school students.
