Examining Character: Playing Children
One of the most misused character types in Impro is the child. In our attempt to connect with our inner child through adult make-believe play, we seem to over-correct and forget that children can be autonomous, intelligent, three-dimensional and fully-formed human beings who experience emotions and have opinions. This workshop will explore how we can interpret child characters of different ages and levels of independence.
WORKSHOP - Theatre
Language: English
Levels: IN + AV/PF
IN - IMPRO BEGINNER: People who already have some experience with Impro courses and/or performances.
AV/PF - ADVANCED/PROFESSIONAL IN IMPRO: People with a few years' experience and/or a career in Impro.
Day/Time: 27/07 (Saturday) from 14:00 to 17:00
Venue: Alcântara Library
(R. José Dias Coelho 27 - 29, 1300-327 - Lisbon)
