This workshop is designed for artists in performance looking to enrich and expand their capacity for jeu (creative play). The artists will explore their own sense of play on stage with the aim of establishing a strong relationship with fellow performers and the audience. We will walk a ‘theatrical tightrope,’ examining physical oppositions and transposing them theatrically.

This workshop is open to artists in all fields of performance arts.
