Join Morwenna Rowe for a voice masterclass focusing on the work an actor can do alone, in preparation to be ready to perform.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

How do we work with our internal space and movement to develop an intimate relationship with the external theatrical space? What physiological interventions and adjustments can ease this process, so that we feel both easily connected to ourselves, and yet able to vocally embrace those sharing the theatrical space, our other actors and the audience?This workshop will seek to unpick the blocks that close our internal space and either keep us closed off from our audience or make us push to try to try to reach them. We will work with the body, with sound, text and relationship to find this ease and play from our inner to outer worlds, focusing on the work an actor can do alone, in preparation to be ready to perform.Please prepare a short speech, 1-2 minutes in length, which is intended to be spoken directly to the audience.
