Learn the techniques and the language to stage human sexuality in a way that is professional, dynamic and focused on storytelling.

Workshops introduce specific techniques to help actors access their vulnerability in a dramatic context, resulting in powerful chemistry between characters without compromising personal boundaries. Focus is on subtle and specific details in choreography, and on acting exercises to keep partners connected physically and emotionally. It’s an exploration of vulnerability within a dramatic context for the purpose of telling the story of the scene. We’ll also touch on suggestions for Best Practices, issues of consent, and psychological safety.
