The Orange Playground Lab #1

A workshop conducted by Suguru Yamamoto of Hanchu-Yuei.

Suguru will guide the participants to a heightened awareness through focusing on the two main types of “places” in theatre:
• The place where it is performed (space)
• The place it is set in the script (scene)

With their sensibilities focused on these two “places”, participants will be able to discover new vocabularies in sincere acting and body movement. Everyone would have had an experience in which our feelings changed when the place altered, or a sense that somehow a certain place never works for us. We hope to lead participants to a greater realisation of the uniqueness of locality and the powerful influence of place in our everyday lives.
