Kursbeskrivning:
In this short and intensive workshop, Yael Rasooly invites participants on a creative journey into the universe of Object Theater. Participants will explore the dialogue and relationships between the performer/character and "ready made" objects.

You will be looking at objects that are Charged, whether from the use of the object, its symbolic associations, or objects that hold an emotional cargo, from personal memory and story. You will be doing exercises and improvisations in groups, and also touching on the theme of individual solo creation, a starting point for future development.

You will be using your 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.

The larger the space – the better, so we can do movement, as well as assign groups to work in different corners. Necessary equipment to play sound from a computer.

Förberedelse:
As you need to have a universe of objects to work with, once the group is decided Yael would like to send an email to the participants, with a few words about the work you will do and what to bring/prepare.
