ACTORS' LAB - THE NARRATOR'S BODY
The work of the lab is dedicated to the preparation of the actor's body, to stage presence, to the discovery of neutrality, which then leads to a renewed physicality of the character played.
To stimulate and train a body that senses, perceives and acts authentically and not disconnected from the text.
The class consists of a physical warm-up part and a creative-expressive part designed to stimulate and refine perception and listening to oneself, others and the stage space.
During the physical training, mind and body are first freed of tensions and blockages.
Experience is made of the inner and outer space and the relationship between them.
In an organic manner, work is then done on the strengthening and stretching of muscles, the flexibility of joints. On the sense of rhythm, balance and coordination of movements.
In a second step, we move on to the creation of performance situations.
The text is integrated into the movement. The research becomes increasingly personal and aimed at the construction of an authentic character.
Observation and practice, action and reaction go together.
