This is a unique opportunity to dive headfirst into a productive theatrical environment that explores storytelling via a Lecoq-style method that will push the physical limits of the actor as a creative theatre maker.

The workshop will explore how the actor in an empty space can bring to life an abundant world of characters, spaces, colours, emotions and atmospheres - with the body alone. Together we will search for each performer's specific and individual storytelling style, and gestural language. In the final part of the weekend participants will create a short devised solo piece for performance.

This Weekend Lab is led by Theatre Ad Infinitum’s co-artistic directors, George Mann and Nir Paldi.

Presented in association with London International Mime Festival.

Ages 18+. Suitable for university students, drama school students and theatre artists.
