Synopsis

In this workshop, participants will be guided through a series of light-hearted and engaging theatre games to experience the power of drama in everyday life.  

 

The workshop includes warm-up, games that rely on rhythm and focus, improvisational interaction exercises and simple scenario creation. No prior performance experience is required—just bring along your curiosity and open-mindedness and you will be able to feel the charm of performing in a short amount of time.

 

You will get to experience:

  • Attempting improvisational performance and exploring creativity and collaboration.  

  • Experiencing the transition between “roles” and “situations” through small-group activities.   

  • Discovering how theatre can enhance observation, confidence and expression in daily life.   

 

This is a theatre experience workshop that is suitable for everyone, allowing you to discover the true “magic of theatre” in a safe and joyful environment.
