Hive Theatre Workshop

What this workshop entails?

The workshop is composed of 8 sessions and each session is 2 hours long. The workshop is a bundle of these 8 sessions and can only booked as a whole and not each session seperately. The sessions are constucted in a continuum way and every time we will build one the skills we developed previously.

Our goal is our participants to receive a well-rounded theatrical training through a variety of exercises and games. We will focus on:

• improvisation
• character creation
• approaching theatre texts
• stage presence
• ensemble work
• physicality and movement
• vocal training

We aim to create a safe space where all participants will feel free to experiment, express themselves, and create—both individually and as part of the group.

For whom is this workshop?

For everyone intrested in theatre practice. You don't need to have previous experience to join the workshop. We will start with the basics and follow a pace comfortable for everyone. Our sessions are tailored to the needs of the participants and are based heavily in ensemble work and group dymanic, which means that people with or without experience can fuse and create together.
