How does your character move? How can you use movement to tell the story of a relationship or a scene? In this three-hour intensive, you will learn how to utilize a diverse group of physical theater and movement techniques, including Lecoq tension work, Complicite stick work, Laban motion factors, and status and spatial relationship work. Each technique will give you a tool to explore a scene or a character. Please wear comfortable clothes and be prepared to move.
