TH 435 The Masked Acrobat

Through disciplined practice of basic gymnastics applied through the principles of slapstick comedy, this class propels actors into the creation of eccentric characters. The series of masks employed by the master, Jacques Lecoq (Neutral, Basal, Commedia del ‘arte and Clown) provide a clear road-map to the discovery of the actor’s resources for physical narrative.
