Workshop
'Between Technique and Imagination'
An introduction to the training and working methods of Teatr Biuro Podrozy. After acquiring knowledge via a variety of diverse training methods, the participants will then be provided with the tools to adapt this knowledge to a scenic situation through both individual and group improvisation. The group believes in the concept of the actor as a psychosomatic wholeness, but they also stress the need to use the whole body as a basic instrument of the actor's craft.

What does it mean to be “alive” or “present” on stage?
How can the performer best exploit the dynamics of live performance?
What is meant by the rhythm, energy and focus of the performer?
Through both individual and ensemble techniques, the participants will discover a new awareness of the role, responsibility, imagination and potential of the stage performer.
Led by Marta Strzalko and Jaroslaw Siejkowski.
