“ Embodied Voice and Sound of the Body”
 
Using the improvisation as  method of rehearsing we will lead to the realm of personal freedom for the actors. The freedom of improvisation in the taught frame of the text lines.
With each group we will work to find “the key words” and “psychological gesture” for the dramatis personae. We will use our voices as musical instruments to express emotional depth of the words. We will play with words to create games that personae are playing. We will be balansing on the edge of known about the personae and unknown ourselves.  Will put stepping stones for the path through the scene.
 
The training includes a sequence of  practical techniques for voice and body – leading from the conscious opening of the embodied voice to self expression in improvisation.
 
The main themes of the practice will be:
Embodied voice and the inner strength,
Meditation on the voice and meditative movements,
Acting with voice: invocation, verbalization,
Interacting with voice: non-verbal and verbal communication,
Dialog,
The main line of the personae.
