PHYSICAL ACTIONING builds on the vocabulary of simple action verbs to generate an entire set of practical tools from first read to performance that harnesses modern knowledge about the integration of the mind and the rest of the body.
Constructed as a series of experiments and exercises, it leads actors through a rigorous examination of their own habits, then links those tools to a careful look at creating character and their application with collaborators in rehearsal and performance.
Physical Actioning creates a modern toolkit for the actor’s work that keeps the exploration embodied at every step and empowers them with specific techniques to apply regardless of the medium of performance.
