ENSEMBLE PHYSICALITY AND ACROBALANCE
A one-day intensive in acrobalance and ensemble physicality. Jumps, lifts, carries, and comic acrobatics; aka, “Things to Do Onstage Other Than Standing Around.” Learn how the human body carries weight—your own or someone else’s! Create scenes and lazzi based on ensemble physicality and weight-sharing. Led by Faction of Fools’ Managing Director Toby Mulford, who holds an MFA in Ensemble-Devised Physical Theatre from the famed Dell’Arte School and recently performed in 1st Stage’s One Man, Two Guvnors.
No previous training in acrobatics required. The class will begin, literally, from the ground up. Open to beginning and advanced students. No prerequisites, but strong backs and knees required. Come dressed to sweat and move. Participants are encouraged to bring water and snacks. (There will be a short lunch break with food options nearby.)
