PROGRAMME


Intensive practical training, lectures, discussions. The programme is focused on the practical exploration of performer’s psycho-physical instrument in the teachings of the Russian outstanding theatrical innovators - Vsevolod Meyerhold, Michael Chekhov and Konstantin Stanislavsky. The Lab is open to performers interested to explore the principles of Biomechanics, Psychological Gesture and Physical Action, to gain a deeper understanding of psycho-physical approach in contemporary performer’s training and its application in practical work - rehearsal process, performance and teaching.



Each morning before breakfast will begin with the warm-up based on the principles of Biomechanics. Participants will be learning one of Meyerhold's etudes. The warm-up will help to wake up the body, imagination and to prepare for the intensive practical work during the day.



Practical sessions develop in the form of various exercises which progress from simple to compound.
Gradually the group is proceeding to group improvisations and structures. Every day is setting advanced creative tasks, developing the preceding steps. Through the system of consecutive exercises the group is growing common language and trust, ability to collaborate and create together.
