 |
This class focuses on using the body to express emotion without supplementary facial expressions or dialogue. We will be sampling several forms of theatre, including Commedia del arte and Kabuki, to explore the different ways that movement can be used to enhance characterization and expression. Because disabling or transforming the use of the face is central to discovering movement, masking and makeup will be included in the course as well. Also, we will learn basic skills that can be useful for auditioning and performing in realms of theatre outside of movement based disciplines. |
