"Learn to love art in yourself, and not yourself in art.”
Konstantin Sergeevič Stanislavsky
Bio28 offers a long weekend of acting and sharing, an intensive masterclass for all people who are in search of the requirements to become actors, who want to consolidate their basic preparation and find new tools useful for stage presence.
There will be a moment of reflection, relaxation and sharing work immersive in nature and in-depth study dedicated to physical, sensory and emotional training.
We will work on the relationship with each other’s (listening, improvising, managing tension on stage) and on the introduction of acting work with two and multi-characters dialogues i (text and subtext, life on stage without lines, awareness of one's physicality, difference between personalization and debasement of characterization, relationship between characters and their intentions). Participants will begin practicing with Shakespeare, with a gradual, non-prioritized approach to the text. We will then continue individually with various texts to choose from a diverse range of proposals.
“I believe in the value of the theater experience as an opportunity for personal and community growth. I believe in the importance of stimulating positive and open relationships, in dialogue with the present and the changing environment. I believe in the role of art and creativity as engines of change.”
Paolo Kessisoglu
