States of Tension
Amplifications of the Human Condition. How, through dance and theatre, do we amplify the human condition? How can we unlock an individual language of tension and rhythm to tell stories, reveal characters, and charge atmospheres? How can we work generously as an ensemble player, whilst challenging ourselves to go deeper? Come and dive into extended improvisation scores, tripping out into distinctive and dramatic worlds - always in the pursuit of an articulate movement language.
please be aware of our early bird special offer for this workshop! you can apply for this offer up until the 15th of september 2024. after the 15th the regular workshop fee applies. applications are accepted up until one day before the workshops starts.
