The Body and the Masked Character of Commedia dell’Arte
This workshop focuses on interpreting the characters of Commedia dell’Arte through mask techniques, audience connection, and improvisation with fellow actors. Lluis Graells offers a unique corporeal approach to his teaching method.
Participants will engage in an immersive week that mirrors the conception and improvisation processes used by Projecte Longànime in their productions. The aim is to equip participants with artistic tools for interpreting masked characters within both comic and tragic contexts, fostering the collaborative creation of improvised comedy.
Workshop Highlights:
- Construction of Masks: Participants will create their own sets of masks using cardboard, facilitating a quick and effective understanding of character personalization.
- Technical Mask Work
- Character and Movement
- The Fourth Wall and Audience Connection
- Improvisation and Mask Performance: Guidelines, patterns, and rhythms
Join us for a transformative week of theatrical exploration and creativity.
