Shawn Kinley, will facilitate 2 impro workshops in Rome.
Early in the 1980's, already performing mime, mask work and physical theatre in various countries, Shawn stumbled into the world famous Loose Moose Theatre in Canada, becoming one of the most appreciated and inspiring performers and teachers at the Moose.
The 2 workshops will focus on improvisation techniques. More details will follow.
…Workshop 1
Class one will look at getting into a physical state for improvisers. We will cover such elements as Gibberish, Contact Improvisation, Stage fight, Mime and Cartoon Mime. We will look at techniques that trick the body into becoming active when there is a tendency to stop and get stuck in talk. We will use the body to inspire the mind into better ideas and give the audience greater variety and enthusiasm for our work.Dates: December 10th-12th 2010
Where: RomeWorkshop 2
Class two will approach the mind of the improviser. We will look at such things as inspiration through stress and removing of stress, breaking the rules to make the scenes better, exercises on how to think about our partner and make stronger connections and inspired reactions. There are specific ways our brain gets in the way of our doing this work. Improvisation should be easy. We will work on clearing the path our mind has cluttered with fear, pre-conceived ideas and ‘intellectual-isms’. We will be doing exercises that make you feel the fun and not think about it.Dates: December 17th-19th 2010
