ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ ΣΕΜΙΝΑΡΙΟΥ

Επινόηση για το Σωματικό Θέατρο (Devising for Physical Theatre)

Το Σώμα, η σχέση με το άλλο σώμα, με την σκιά του, το περιβάλλον, η δυναμική και η προοπτική του, η παύση , η εκκρεμότητα, η εκφραστικότητά του… η εικόνα και η ατμόσφαιρα που δημιουργείται…..το σύγχρονο θέατρο βασίζεται όλο και λιγότερο αποκλειστικά στον λόγο και περισσότερο στη σκηνική εικόνα. 

Οι απαιτήσεις του επινοημένου (devised) σωματικού θεάτρου προϋποθέτουν ανεπτυγμένες ικανότητες  κατανόησης της σκηνικής εικόνας, εκπαίδευση στην εικαστική ανάγνωση και φυσικά  δεξιότητες και εργαλεία για την επινόηση δυνατού υλικού.

Παρέχοντας  αυτά τα εφόδια, το εργαστήριο του David Glass θα βοηθήσει τους συμμετέχοντες να ανακαλύψουν, να εμπλουτίσουν και να αποσαφηνίσουν τα στοιχεία της επινόησης για το Σωματικό και οπτικό (visual) θέατρο. Με ασκήσεις σωματικές, σωματικούς αυτοσχεδιασμούς, συλλογική επινόηση υλικού, εξερεύνηση διαφορετικών ειδών θεάτρου,  το εργαστήριο αυτό είναι προκλητικό, παιχνιδιάρικο και απαιτητικό.O David είναι ο πλέον κατάλληλος να ενώσει τα στοιχεία του θεάτρου της επινόησης με αυτά του οπτικού/σωματικού θεάτρου όντας καινοτόμος σε αυτές τις μορφές θεάτρου παγκοσμίως.

ΣΕ ΠΟΙΟΝ ΑΠΕΥΘΥΝΕΤΑΙ

Το σεμινάριο απευθύνεται σε  ηθοποιούς/ performers/χορευτές….ακόμα και σε έμπειρους ερασιτέχνες …..η όσους από εμάς θεωρούμε ότι έχουμε ακόμα πολλά να μάθουμε από έναν μεγάλο δάσκαλο.Θα λάβει χώρα στο Ίδρυμα Μιχάλης Κακογιάννης και θα ασχοληθεί με άλλες πτυχές του σωματικού θεάτρου από το περσινό, ειναι κατάλληλο για παλιούς και νέους μαθητές. 

ΤΙ ΕΝΑΙ ΤΟ ΣΩΜΑΤΙΚΟ ΘΕΑΤΡΟ;

Το σωματικό θέατρο γεννιέται μέσα από μια διαδικασία έρευνας του ηθοποιού που μέσα από σειρά αυτοσχεδιασμών και ασκήσεων αναζητά την αφύπνιση της ενστικτώδους σωματικής αντίδρασης σε ένα ερέθισμα, παρακάμπτοντας την λογική καθημερινή σκέψη. Ζει στο “Εδώ και Τώρα” , οι παραστάσεις σωματικού θεάτρου , ενώ περιέχουν συχνά λόγο, κινούνται σε θεατρικά είδη πέραν του ρεαλισμού. Η αφήγηση δεν είναι συνήθως γραμμική, αλλά αφαιρετική και το σώμα είναι το κυρίως  εκφραστικό μέσο.

Testimonials

David Glass is one of the world’s great theatre teachers. He is of the most inspiring and creative teachers of performance skills that I have had the pleasure of working with.

Mike Alfreds, Theatre Director (RSC, National Theatre, The Globe, Founder of Shared Experience)

‘This workshop was inspirational and eye-opening in its dissection of the Creative process. In the few weeks since completion, I have already found myself approaching my creative work in exciting new ways – resulting in more thought-through, experimental pieces. The joy of the workshop was in how it was full of people practising diverse artistic disciplines, and how everyone clearly benefited from it. It was a true joy to work with David and the group’.

– Tom Daldry.

 “Even one month after the weekend course with David Glass I can still feel the power of his words and the exercises we did – in my mind and my body. I had a weekend full of wonderful people who under his guidance learnt to lower their judgments, to give them up in order to take part of a creative force – it was a place full of beauty, creativity and love for human beings. I am really not joking when I say I completely fell in love with the way David teaches, how he was always there to answer questions and never ever I felt judged, which was freeing. The lessons there are lessons for life.”

– Lidija Burcak. 

 I have been wanting to transition into theatre for a while now and David’s workshop has really started to get the ball moving for me in this direction. I come from a dance and movement background and I found the workshop really suited to actors, dancers etc. The work process is authentic and the methods really demystified how to create this type of work. The environment was supportive & inspiring I felt safe to explore and be vulnerable. The work seems to explore the human condition and I feel like David is invested in drawing this out from each of us through games and exercise. I would love to do more and hope the course will run again but longer next time!

– Stella McGowan

 “David Glass workshop felt like such a gift. Immediately we were drawn into his way of seeing and observing the world when he stopped the introduction round every time to point out the way someone was moving their hands or their tongues. We were challenged from the first moment to start looking further and closer to what was happening around us and to what was happening within us. We were challenged to look at all the mess that was already there and with the hours passing by we felt a hunger rising within ourselves. A hunger to make and create and take in everything that was offered to us in the short amount of time. I feel immensely grateful for the space that was created by David for us to try and guess and fail and try again and fail better. He really knows how to set the right energy within a group. To set that bond of trust and lowering the judgement towards each other and ourselves. I really hope and wish I can work with him again in the future within a workshop or longer training on his way of working. But for now I take with me a good 12 pages of notes and a heart and body that is hungry to make and recreate again.”

– Esmée Begemann

 “Everyone has a second stomach for desert”

David Glass’ Workshops always leave me feeling full yet hungry for more. In the space of two days he manages to bring a group of strangers together and get them working and sharing like they have known one another for years. David may not necessarily teach you anything new, but he will shake you awake and make you realise that you have had this knowledge all along. He reminds us of all the lessons we learnt as a child that are now habits we don’t necessarily notice. After the weekend I felt my creative gears re-oiled and working on over time, I felt challenged, vulnerable yet strong, and ready to continue working my ass off for the things I want.

– Aimee Kember
