DIRECTING PERFORMANCE 4th – 10th September ‘11

This unique workshop is for anyone that wants to direct Theatre or Film professionally.

It is a ‘hands on’ practical experience where Directors will work with Actors and Writing.

You, as a Director, will be able to develop your own approach to creating Drama or Comedy, confidently guided by intuition and imagination but always within a solid structure:

.You will learn how to direct actors by giving them a freedom and a structure at the same time, allowing them the chance to create their best work.

 
.You will learn to devise scenes and work up scripts. You will also learn how to recognise good writing and develop it (not everything is playable).

.We will cover the basics of teamwork. You will also experience what it is like to be directed.

.You will fully experience the Creative Triangle: Writing, Acting and Directing.

Directors need to create a space and inspire an atmosphere where creative risks can be taken, without fear of failure and where effort and achievement can be recognised.

.What is the role of a director?
.Teamwork – Teamworks!
.The Game.

.Dramatic Motors / Devising.
.Scripts, Text and Subtext.
.The Gap.
.Conscious vs Unconscious. Characters motivation.
.Directing the Scene and the Unseen.
.Writing and Directing Writing.
