Complemenraty Workshop

"Story telling and Bondy Communication"
Sofia Paschou, actress, director, theatre/drama teacher
This workshop is offered in Greek language
In teaching and especially in teaching theater or theatrical play, rhythm and sense are among the most important tools.
The body must be active, alive, to "pass" information, exercise.
We will focus on this very point.
The goal is the teacher, his/her communication with the children. How to become a child again.
We already have the tools we need: the body, the voice and the imagination.
We will learn to use them, we will learn how these are all we need to create what we want.
In the workshop we will work on well-known fairy tales and we will aproach them from different angles, utilizing the above tools.
