Details
The essence of each person is the foundation of communication. Communication not as an act of transmitting information, but as a space for encounter and exchange between people. Through various performing arts tools such as play, improvisation, and body work, the aim is to develop stage self-awareness, active listening, and a genuine presence in relationship with others. The workshop seeks to foster each person’s creative potential by valuing their authenticity as a driving force in the act of communication. No previous experience is required, especially no background in theatre. Participants are encouraged to come with curiosity and comfortable clothing.
