Movement and Physical Acting for Performers |
Movement and Physical Acting for PerformersMovement training led by Aleksandar Acev deals with basic dialectics of physical acting: action and reaction, impression and expression, feeling and doing, sensing and making, known and unknown, realistic and abstract, usual and fictive. Based on fundamental elements of actors expression: look, posture, breathing, tonicity, the workshop explores the possibilities of physical interaction between two performers, touching different zones of human experience and interpersonal relations: humour and drama, risk and security, order and chaos. After analysing the grammaticism, the path will lead from improvisation to composition, from variation to the theme of movement sequence, and finally to the specific dramaturgy of the movement. The participants will be invited to search for unusual solutions for their movements on the stage, where vulnerability and openness are playing an important role.Biography - Aleksandar Acev
