WORKSHOPS

STATUS AND MASTER SERVANT

Saturday  Oct. 5th, 2019, 3.30 pm–6.30 pm

Status play happens continually in life.  It is a form of silent communication, significant in how we relate to and are affected by people everyday.  We are constantly relating and adjusting our status.  On stage relationships look void of any really connection when status play is not present.

Master Servant work is anchored in status.  It is the understanding of status play and the ability to raise and lower each others status which can build tension or create comedy.  It is an important technique to have in your impro tool kit.

WORKSHOP

SCENES THAT MATTER

Sunday Oct. 6th, 2019, 1.30 pm–6.30 pm

We live in a complex, complicated and extraordinary world. Humans are capable of the most amazing heroic and horrific actions. What one person may see as rational and necessary another sees as an act of prejudice or violence. Our values, views, morality and beliefs colour our interpretation. Improvisational theatre can provoke the audience to question their own beliefs by shining a light on stories from a different point of view. Where the unimaginable becomes understandable and the wrong may seem right.

Improvisers are often afraid to engage in the stories that reflect life around us. This workshop challenges participants to play scenes based on the dark and light of humanity.

Please note: this workshop uses subject material and language that may be confronting and difficult for some people.

For advanced improvisers only

Workshop Fee     € 80
Duration     5 hours
