Working Groups: Acting

Working Groups: Acting is a workshop for Ukrainian refugees who would like to try themselves in acting and develop their talent. During the workshop with the moderator, the participant will connect in a relaxed atmosphere with each other by doing some acting exercises on connection: yes/no, looking into the eyes for 1-2 minutes, energy circle, etc, work on plasticity, improvisation & scenes. The focus during the workshops will be on removing body clamps, developing looseness & free self-expression. We believe that with those working groups we can help the participants to connect on other levels, share their fears, thoughts and feelings and discover something new in themselves to help them cope with the current trauma.

The ultimate and wishful plan is that the participants will slowly organize themselves into small groups and will direct each other making small plays that they can later show to other Ukrainians during organized performances.
