9-11 July, 2021.
Studio 1 at Katapult.
_________
There are three masks: the one we think we are, the one we really are, and the one we have in common. – Jacques Lecoq (1921 – 1999)
What happens when you put on a mask that is “neutral”, that has no character at all?
A neutral mask is never neutral when it sits on the face of the player. Since it does not contain a dramatic facial expression, it acts like a magnifying glass for the inherent dramatic expression that is present in your own body.
By enabling you to identify your own unique movement characteristics, it invites you to quiet the “noise” in your body and clarify your gestures in time and space. Enter the silence of the neutral mask.
In this workshop we will use neutral masks as a pedagogical tool for becoming aware of movement habits and blocks in the drive towards more clarity of movement and presence on stage.
We will be using hand-crafted, leather masks developed by three generations of the Sartori family in Padova, Italy.
– Clarity of movement
– Creating silence
– Becoming aware of our own habits of movement
