PROGRAM OUTLINE
Choreography and movement is an essential part of performance regardless of whether it is a movement- or a text-based piece. Nowadays, lots of theatre directors neglect professional approach to directing a movement in their performances
For most directors, the choreography, composition and blocking to accompany their work is not an after-thought; rather it is an essential, meaningful ingredient in the duration of the whole performance-making process. Directors often collaborate with choreographers and movement directors to plan, create, and realize dance or movement design concept.
The aim of this course is to prepare director for the performance production with performer, by equipping him with the tools and skills necessary to build strong mise-en-scene and movement directing. The central topic is an exploration of ways to create choreography and movement in the performance.
