This 6-week series offers an introduction to Action Theater, a unique form of improvisational theatre developed by the American performance artist, Ruth Zaporah. Fundamental to the practice is an embodied presence in performance, where the experiencing of the body informs the content, moment by moment. Through playful and rigorous exercises, which isolate and recombine movement, sound and language, we broaden our range of improvisational skills. Always working from an embodied state, we develop spatial awareness and access to our imagination, crafting creative impulses into clear images, stories and dreamscapes. This technique turns the mind inside out, examines existing habits and opens up new possibilities. We bring attention to the details of our physical choices, to the quality and range of our vocalizing. Working in solos, duets, trios and also as an ensemble, the class starts with physical and vocal warm-ins followed by various exercises, finishing with informal presentations.
