This is a new edition of our previously highly-received workshop Physical Movement and Playful Fun. This workshop offers a whole new range of warm-ups, games and exercises. We'll explore physical movement and styles, developing ideas through improvisation. In the festive spirit, improv is 'gift-giving too – of giving impulsive ideas and receiving them. We'll build narratives with humour & playfulness. There'll be opportunities to work individually & collaboratively.
This workshop will be led by Alice Higginson-Clarke: a theatre-maker, performer, writer and choreographer, Co-Artistic Director of Scratchworks Theatre Company.Scratchworks has been using physical theatre to tell original stories for 10 years. We blend movement, comedy, live music and imagination to bring a story to life. Alice is also a workshop facilitator with Freshwater Theatre Company and was a JMK Director’s Award Finalist in 2016. With her background in dance, Alice has worked as a Choreographer for productions at the Minack Theatre and for BYMT.

This session is open to all levels of ability, from those new to physical theatre or for those with more experience looking to explore & play in a collaborative environment.
Photography will take place during the workshop with photos and video clips sent to the members for their archive afterwards (which you can opt out of).
