Dear friends and colleagues,
We all know that there is no perfect method – but you can be methodical! And – you can develop your own methodology. Dr. Jurij Alschitz is a particular proponent of this open form: everyone, whether actor, director or teacher, creates their own system. This course is about a “wonder weapon” for directing and teaching: EXERCISES.
EXERCISES are not mere sporting exercises, but cleverly selected and simple tasks that gradually become more complicated and can ultimately even grow into a complete performance.
The real art lies in first knowing many possible components, then combining them in new ways and adapting them to the respective material or learning objective.
How is a good EXERCISE put together? What principles is it based on? What should it achieve in detail? Where should it lead? Anyone who has gained a certain amount of experience will easily invent their own new EXERCISES. In this way, the process of teaching becomes an artistic-creative – and fullfilling experience; directors are given the tools to transfer their ideas in such a way that they are invented by the actors themselves and made their own. Only then will both – actors and ideas – remain alive on stage for a long time.
The World Theatre Training Institute invites everyone to explore this topic online from 9 – 12 May.
Experience first-hand the world of EXERCISES as it was invented by Jurij Alschitz and developed over the years. Gain an insight into the philosophy of “training as method”.
