End of Term Performance
28th March 2026
On Saturday 28th March we will once again be holding our end-of-term event aimed at raising awareness of Corporeal Mime - as yet little known here in Japan. The event will include a 90 minute trial lesson and a short performance by participants of the full time course. Both are free! All are welcome. Please email us if you wish to make a booking in English.
★ There will also be a short talk about the school and about Corporeal Mime.
Free Trial Lesson
In this 90 minute class you will experience the basics of Corporeal Mime and acquire practical tools to help you express drama through your body. By studying the distinctive technique of Corporeal Mime you will gain physical awareness, expand your expressive vocabulary and learn to make more creative choices. The class will be taught by Kentaro Suyama and Tania Coke, directors of tarinainanika theatre company. Anyone interested in physical expression is welcome. No prior experience necessary.
End of Term
Performance
A short performance by our full-time course students, featuring solos, duets, and ensemble scenes devised during the term.
The material we are developing this term is in preparation for the end of year performance which will take place in July 2026. Starting from scratch - with no predetermined theme or written story - each student will give physical form to their ideas, relying on the knowledge and technique gained in class. Please enjoy this glimpse into the unique creative process of Corporeal Mime.
