We will start with full neutral masks exploring breathing, and movement in silence, all in SLOW MOTION.
Then we will use half masks exploring the addition of sound.
Finally we will engage with Character Masks.
How do we approach the mask?
How do we breathe and see in the mask?
How do we move in the mask?
Mirroring with partners.
Wear loose clothing in neutral colors.
Guided by Gerard Moses
Masking exercises will be accompanied by JT Lee drumming.
"The mask is a terrible, mysterious instrument. It has always given me and continues to give me a feeling of fear. With the mask we are on the threshold of a theatrical mystery whose demons reappear with static, immutable faces, which are the very roots of theatre."
Giorgio Strehler
