Creating Characters with Gitika Buttoo
This zoom workshop will explore directing techniques and exercises behind creating the world of a play and in turn developing characters within a story.
We’ll look at the relationship between character and actor, trying out some different approaches on how to engage the two. This will be a practical heavy workshop as we will try out some of this practice together in a group. Come play for an hour and hopefully learn some skills on the way.
