Create
Writing through inprovisation ahead of paper and pen as an ensemble through a truthful observation of the world and it’s movements we devise and discover what Lecoq meant by creating a ‘A theatre that moves’.
Space
Take the Space! Without space there is no theatre. The analysis of our own individual stories and personal habits and gestures is essential in order to create the larger stories around us. Breath begins with awareness.
Play
We bring the Actor's attention back to playing though rigourous improvisation. We aim to introduce dynamic performance languages which emphasise physical playing and a discovery the importance of listening, action and reaction.
