August Month - long Intensive Training

Diving deeply into Action Theater 

Lehrer: Sten Rudstrøm

4 intensive Wochen, 5 Tage per Woche, 5 Stunden am Tag arbeiten wir an der Entwicklung von Improvisation und Performance. Mit Hilfe von spezifischen Übungen verbessern wir unsere Fähigkeiten, die uns in der Improvisation helfen und unsere Performances - sei es auf der Bühne oder im Alltag - reicher, tiefer und menschlicher werden lassen. Jeden Tag üben wir mit einem simplen Score die Improvisation in der Gruppe und angelehnt an die vorherigen Übungen Solos, Duo und Trios mit anschließendem Feedback. Das Training endet mit einem öffentlichem Showing am 25.August 2012, hierfür bitte schwarze Kleidung mitbringen.

By bringing awareness to actions’ interior, Action Theater leads the performer back into her body, broadens the range and quality of her movement. It helps develop a unique and idiosyncratic vocabulary, frees the individual and brings each performer to a fresh, new relationship with their movement. When improvising, thoughts occur inside of actions while the actions are taking place. These thoughts are energetic parts of each moment, similar to kinesthetic sensation. And they can steal from the moment or add to it. If the improviser blocks these thoughts, then the improvisation stiffens and breaks down. If on the otherhand, the performer greets these thoughts and incorporates them, the improvisation expands.

To improvise skillfully one must be aware of the responses that are available within each given moment. This kind of awareness takes practice, dis-covering and saying yes to what arises from the body and mind. If the performer doesn’t know herself, hasn’t investigated her quirks and desires, she will lose track of form and content. When the performer is seduced by form, she loses her awareness. Who is she when she is doing this particular movement? How does she feel? When she is seduced by content, spatial use will decline, the particular qualities of movement will be lost, the body may be forgotten. What kinesthetic sensation triggers the feeling state that triggers the action that triggers the kinesthetic sensation? How and when does this cycle occur and where does awareness enter?

Action Theater enters the performance process, quiets the busy mind and allows for new choices. It helps the performer recognize her habits and moments of "turning off." It builds performance skills and serves as source work for the creation of set pieces. It increases performers’ presence. Performers feel more connected to their experience, connected to their partners. They feel embodied and alive.
