Showcase

Programme Synopsis Viewpoints is an approach to help students understand the ideas of Space and Time on stage. It is a method to break down elements of performance in order to study, practise and gain new insights into the art of the actor. It is a way to build ensemble synergy through the establishment of a common language. Why should students practise Viewpoints? ➢ It encourages students to move and awaken their senses. ➢ It gives students vocabulary to work in an ensemble. ➢ Most importantly, practising Viewpoints allows students to practise patience, generosity, courage, acceptance and broaden their perspectives. This class would be at an introductory level for the duration of 2 days. The class could be extended to a longer period of time (eg. 2 weeks) to allow a more in-depth study.
