Here is an overview, more offers will be added.
We would be very happy about your mouth-to-mouth propaganda. Thank you very much!

The Art of RehearsalDirecting Practice for Directors and ActorsJurij Alschitz8 October 2023 Online Introduction In this new format, Jurij Alschitz focuses on intimacy and professional exchange among colleagues. This is a unique opportunity to explore new paths together with a Master and to participate in the development of new rehearsal methods: The first rehearsal method Jurij Alschitz calls “Apokryphos”, borrowed from the Greek apokryphos – hidden. This method is both unusual and very useful because … The second method is the “method of emptiness”. It is based on the assertion that 70 to 80 % of the play consists of emptiness. … it reveals what is not seen or heard, but is the basis for the life of the role and the performance … The course will continue with the third, fourth … method in Feb/April/June 2024 in Berlin. |

The Actor as StorytellerChristine Schmalor22 | 24 | 29 Nov | 1 | 6 | 8 December from 15-17:30 UTC+1 The Power of Words and Images Storytelling as a basis for approaching a role or creating a character; as a rehearsal method or method for play development. How do we learn to discover myths or invent new, modern myths? How do we awaken images in ourselves and how do these become visible to others? How do we recognise our own artistic image and bring it to life? The ancient cultural practice of telling stories helps us to do this. We will explore it in monologue, dialogue and as an ensemble. |

This course is intended to help concretise the individual vision of theatre. Because your personal vision of theatre alone is the compass that will guide you through your formation and your engagements. |
