Mask Construction & Performance
The mask became the central image and pedagogical tool of the renowned teacher Jacques Lecoq. This five-day workshop will introduce participants to the five central masks of the Lecoq tradition: The Neutral Mask, Larval Masks, Full-Faced Expressive Masks, Commedia Half-Masks, and the Clown Nose. In addition, we will explore an element of mask construction each day, which will serve as a central theme throughout the lessons. Those who attend will leave with their own mask.
This workshop will be suitable for beginners or anyone looking to experience the weird world of masks!

The Creativity GYM
This is an ongoing series of workshops for former students of mine.
​
The aim is to foster a continued sense of creativity, playfulness, and nurture connections with classmates after drama school. Classes will be held at Theatre Deli, and cost £25 for a full day of play.
​
Each session we will develop OLD skills, in the hope of creating something NEW.

Workshop 1:
Trateau
Explore devising and physical expression through minimising space. In this workshop we will play with the idea of building our favourite epic movies inside a very small space.
