About
The engaging and fast-paced session introduces students to mask theatre, demonstrating how to create characters, develop clarity in communication and devise original work, empowering students to create their own mask theatre.
The workshop will:
- Familiarise students with the basic rules of performing in full mask, focusing on physical clarity
- Develop students’ understanding of specific performance elements such as movement, gesture and pace, and how this contributes to creating character and communicating intention
- Teach students important mask techniques such as internal monologue, clocking, punctuated movement and stillness
- Build students’ confidence in the devising process, and encourage them to think creatively and clearly
- Encourage students to consider, and be able to critique, the importance of the performer/audience relationship
- Develop teamwork and group trust
- Help shy or under-confident students to shine with the protection of a mask
