Physical Theatre - Jos Baker - Full time workshop

JETSUMMER DANCEWEEKS

Jos Baker
Physical Theatre

25/08 to 29/08
10h to 17h00

What makes one performer more watchable than another? What prevents us from being stronger performers? How can we practice performance? Unfortunately this element of dance training is usually ignored and I try to redress that where I can. I certainly don’t know all the answers, but I do know some of the questions and some ways of trying to explore them. The workshop will also look at research into physical theatre ideas.
