Figur i Fossekleiva: The performer, the object and the secret in between

Together with Fossekleiva International Festival of Puppetry and Visual Theatre we invite you to a week of brilliant performances and workshops!

In this intensive workshop, Yael Rasooly invites the participants on a creative journey into The universe of Object theatre.

Participants will explore the dialogue and relationship between the performer/ character and «ready made» objects. We will be looking at objects that are charged, its symbolic associations, or objects that hold an emotional cargo, from personal memory and story. We will be doing exercises and improvisations in groups, and also touching on the  theme of individual solo creation, a starting point for future development. We will be  using our bodies in relation to the objects and their manipulation, as well as the Voice, both in speaking and singing.

Above all the workshop aims to dive into the process of creation itself, giving tools for when working with others and working alone. Stepping into the inner space of invention and playfulness, passing through artistic blockage, improvising, working fast, with heightened sensitivity and with pleasure!
