THE AFTERNOON – THEATER
Theater is wonderful precisely in that it enacts states of mind, engages while keeping the distance of real life. Theater is a school of emotions like children’s fairy tales.
In this theater workshop, through playful exercises, both gestural and verbal expression will be explored. There will be awareness of space and awareness of each other’s presence, facilitating group creativity and collaboration.
In a playful atmosphere, visual perception and the ability to memorize spaces, situations and objects will be developed as well as the ability to invent from movement and the ability to act in relation to people and objects.
On Friday, June 14 at 3:45 p.m., parents are invited to attend a short performance to conclude the workshop!
