End of Term Performance​

22nd March 2025

On Saturday 22nd March we are holding a special end-of-term event. The event is ideal for anyone wishing to learn more about Corporeal Mime -  an approach to theatre based on the expressive power of the body.  Originating in France, it is as yet little known in Japan. This event is a chance to  experience Corporeal Mime through a 90-minute trial lesson, and to see Corporeal Mime in action in a short performance by participants of our full time course.. Both the lesson and the performance are free of charge.

 

★ The lesson will include a short talk about Corporeal Mime and the School.

​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

After the class there will be a short performance by participants of the full time course.  The performance will combine students' own compositions with extracts from the repertoire of the originator of Corporeal Mime,  Etienne Decroux,

Inspired by Gordon Craig's idea of the "Uber-Marionette" Decroux dedicated his life to building the actor's art of Corporeal Mime. His aim was to enable human beings to achieve a level of versatility and virtuosity that Gordon Craig believed could only be achieved by marionettes.
