Thinking Makes It So
“Thinking Makes It So” is ideal for students interested in learning the fundamentals of taking a play from page to stage. Participants explore dramatic form, analyze the characters and actively play a role, thereby gaining further insight into Shakespeare’s work and the art of theatrical storytelling. Exercises shed light on literary and dramatic devices; exploring key characters in the play, the obstacles and the tactics used by the character to achieve their goals, and how these combine to create and support the plot and themes of the play.
I Bite My Thumb
Our specialized stage combat workshop for Drama students, “I Bite My Thumb,” returns by popular demand. Focusing on control, safety and trust, this workshop takes students through the steps of creating believable, but safe, stage combat and culminates in a six-phase “fight” that students choreograph implementing practiced moves they have acquired.
Our workshops can be conducted on a gym floor, open stage, band or chorus room, or in a classroom setting with moveable desks.
