Course/Module description:
This course offers combined techniques for stage presence and acting. The course focuses on three aspects. The first is to examine dynamics among partners on the stage. Work on listening, initiating and responding in real time to create relationships and dramatic tension. Second - deepening the performers's inner world. Exercises to find a variety of personal expression abilities and to search for different sides in the performer. Third, examining space as a component of the performer's work.
