Free (the) Mime

Theatre class

Free (the) Mime performance
© Francesco Fusco

Facilitator: Sue Koppel

Location: exploratorium berlin, Studio 2

This workshop is aimed at people with and without stage experience who are interested in movement, as well as theater, performance, and dance professionals who want to expand their artistic range of expression.

The work focuses on the principles of Mimes Corporel as a form of expression, as well as the concept of Instant Dramaturgy. We explore who we are on stage—in relation to space, other bodies, and the emerging situation. We work with both free improvisation and improvisation guided by concepts.

We engage in the study of triple designs, counterweights and overweights, and their integration into rhythm-time structures and stylistic figures. These elements serve as tools for developing presence, tension, and dramaturgical clarity within improvisation.

In addition, we develop an awareness of scenic balance, the spatial design of bodies on stage, the dynamics between characters, and the causalities of movement, starting from so-called “safe ports” that support us in constructing an improvised dramaturgy.
