WORKSHOPS


Workshops

The company regularly animate training courses and workshops for children, teenagers, adults, amateurs or professionals.



The Body Actor


These training sessions aim to accustomise the participants to a theatre where word becomes gesture, a visual theatre, physical and poetic.
The sessions are open to anyone who would like to discover the art of mime and pantomime, or those wanting to refine or further their artistic training...
The training combines a base of fun exercises and techniques borrowed from and influenced by Marcel Marceau/pantomime and Etienne Decroux/Corporeal Mime.

How does one act without the aid of words? How does one show emotion, anxiety, tension, dreams...only using the body? By familiarizing oneself to a theatre that takes place before words, a theatre that makes the body, the silence and the unsaid speak...



Mime and Pantomime


From Etienne Decroux (corporeal mime) to Marcel Marceau (pantomime), from silent films to the circus clown...
a general survey of the different styles and specific techniques of mime and pantomime.



Grotesque Masks


The mask has its roots in the art of mime: segmentation, articulation, pose, stylization and exaggeration of gestures.
The study of these techniques allows the creation and production of characters with different temperaments, rhythms, forms and gaits to be defined...
*masks and costumes are supplied by the company.



Burlesque Tragedy


Study of the workings, rhythms, characters and real situations of tragicomedy.
References to that art of clowning, to silent films and to the Theatre of the Absurd.
Play with objects. Improvisations, interpretation and creation of burlesque scenes.
