On Tuesday 16 November, JAGS alumna Tamsin Clarke came to do a physical theatre workshop using Lecoq techniques to help us approach our Devised Drama pieces in our chosen theatrical style. She covered different exercises and styles that you could use to create different sections, such as actors acting as materials or elements to create a character. She taught us how to create stylised physical theatre that looks controlled while pushing us to the edge of our skills, and really exploring our dynamic range. It was a really helpful session as it gave us inspiration for how to set out sections, to be fearless and how to try a different approach if we were struggling with ideas. Click here for photos.
