Information:
Workshop: The Fascination of the Masks with Steve Jarand*

What are the differences between good Impro and great Impro?

Good acting and great acting?

It lies somewhere beyond wit, charm and precision.

In this workshop, gain some insight into the origins of improvised theatre and the heart of the performer through the use of masks and mask ideas.

Experience how the impulse of transformation can come from something other than your thoughts, your concepts, your self.

We will work with half (Trancemasks) and/or partial masks (noses, glasses, wigs, etc.) to give ourselves different inner and outer perception.

We will also play full masks to practice new physical and emotional states to reveal the stories of the audience as well as the personal feelings that go along with them.

WHEN: June 16, 2018 (10:30 AM - 5:30 PM)
