Physical Acting Workshop - The Rasas

This two-day workshop is an exploration of the relationship between emotion, body, movement, and expression, and it is open to actors, dancers, movers, performers, and anyone curious about embodiment, emotional expression, physical communication, and self-exploration.

You do not need previous acting or movement experience.

The Rasa practice: the exercises explored in the workshop are drawn from the classical Indian performance text Nāṭyaśāstra and from the contemporary research and practice of theatre director and performance theorist Richard Schechner.

The work can be playful, surprising, sometimes uncomfortable, and often deeply energizing.

Through the practice, we explore our capacity to:
- become more physically expressive and available
- recognize and embody different emotional qualities
- expand habitual patterns of movement and expression
- transform emotional states into physical action and improvisational material
