Program

20-29 July 2023  |    Laubegg Castle, Austria

Since 2003, "Performing Arts Between Tradition and Contemporaneity" 
is the annual international multidisciplinary conference exploring the bridge 
between the "traditional" and the "contemporary" in performing arts. 

The Physical Theatre Lab program is focused on the Ostrenko brothers approach of performers’ training, relying on the Russian Theatre Tradition, as well as the newest experiments in performing arts. Performer's physicality in the methods of K.Stanislavsky, M.Chekhov, Vs.Meyerhold's Biomechanics, Tai-chi for performers, improvisation, movement directing and teaching.

 

These are some of the elements uniquely transformed and combined in Ostrenko's teaching system to suit the needs of contemporary performers, directors, and teachers.

Participants will practically explore the performer's physicality as the principal creative instrument, the key to form and style an atmosphere and emotional palette in contemporary performance, stepping beyond the limits of normative text-based acting.
