In greek tragedy everything is beautiful: the actor, the setting, the music, the text… the actor shows outstanding qualities: light and soft movements, a terrific voice, a stunning presence… the beauty of the actor is combined with the fierceness of barbarian.
The feeling that death is near is always present – no mask, no artificial figure can exist in greek tragedy. The play is direct, wonderfully human, and without compromise.
This workshop is an wonderful platform to improve and learn how to apply the the emotions directly and outright to the play. Space- and group awareness, sensitivity and pleasure are a fundamental part of this workshop. The actor finds his personal and direct access to his emotions without psychological analyzes, but in a light and joyful way and learns how to share his vivid emotional play with the audience. …let yourself be touched and you will touch your audience!
