Manipulating puppets requires an understanding not only of how the puppet moves, but how you the performer move in service to that puppet. I train performers kinesthetic awareness of their own bodies in space and in relation to the puppets and objects outside of them. Find your vertical core, drop your weight and be ready to move in this movement class for puppeteers. Working with simple objects we will discover what basic elements can help you transform anything into a puppet.
You'll learn about rhythm, dynamics and breath. You'll learn to use your limbs in partnership with one another as opposed to as one block. You'll partner with yourself, your fellow puppeteers, and the very architecture that surrounds you. This class will make you a more powerful and centered performer onstage, able to direct an audience focus to either your puppet or yourself.
This class is for puppeteers, dancers, actors, or performers who would like to add puppetry to their skill set. Students must be over 18. Limited to 12 students.
