Pandora: Mask Workshop

Pandora Workshop by Teatro Dei Gordi

Alongside the highly anticipated return of Italian physical theatre company Teatro Dei Gordi with Pandora, The Coronet Theatre is thrilled to present a unique and exciting opportunity to explore working with masks on stage led by Pandora‘s director Riccardo Pippa.

Masks can bring suggestive and poetic figures to life and are a useful tool for improving one’s stage presence and gesture.

In this exclusive 3 hour workshop, participants, through specific training and improvisation exercises, will learn some basic rules for using masks effectively.

Suitable for: professional actors, dancers and performers. Good aptitude for movement and physical training is required.

Attire: Participants should be dressed in loose-fitting, comfortable attire that allows unrestricted movement. Please wear neutral colours with no writing. Participants will work both barefoot and wearing shoes. Each participant will need to bring a pair of black tights (not thick, twenty denier will be sufficient) that will be used to cover hair and ears while working with the masks.

Please note that the content of both workshops will be the same, participants should book for only one.

There will be professional photography taking place during the workshop on Fri 28 Feb.
