SUMMARY:Theatre Making Approaches Workshop - Neil Haigh
DESCRIPTION:Join award winning theatre maker and actor Neil Haigh for this one-off workshop and explore how to create exciting\, dynamic & playful theatre using only ourselves and a few basic scene or story ideas. (Age 16+\, over 50’s welcome!) \n\nOver an intensive 4 hrs we will endeavour to cover:\nPlayful approaches to acting – (openness\, complicity\, theatre as ‘game’)Physical/non-psychological approaches to scenes – techniques for narrative\, generating new material & ‘character Imagery\, atmosphere & ‘heightened’ theatricality for narrative content – (non ‘text-led’ storytelling) Scene Creation – using some or all of these techniques from visual stimuli (group/ensemble devising work) This workshop is ideally suited for those with some prior acting and/or theatre making experience\, but you do NOT have to be a professional actor. You might be looking for theatre making techniques for your own work\, wishing to compliment existing studies\, or just keen to explore a new area in theatre…whatever the case – just bring yourself\, a sense of fun and a preparedness to try with no pressure to ‘succeed’ or ‘get it right’. \n\n* The first half (approx) of the workshop will focus on techniques and how to generate content\, and the second half on applying them to specific\, provided scenarios and visual stimuli\n* Whilst approaches to Acting make up a part of this workshop\, the emphasis is more on theatre making & how to generate and explore content and meaning\n*Some movement will form part of the workshop but there is no requirement to be ‘athletic’ and no upper age limit. I will happily work with whatever access requirements you may need\, so please do let us know in advance! \n\nAbout Neil:\nStudied Acting & Devising with John Wright (Trestle\, Told By An Idiot) and has since forged a career as an actor on stage and screen. He has also made over 30 professional productions and was Co-Artistic Director of the acclaimed Cartoon de Salvo Theatre Co\, making nationally and internationally recognised work over 15 yrs\, from Village Halls across the land to co-productions with major venues\, and in Hong Kong and the Kennedy Centre Washington DC.
