Fae and the Possessed

About the Event

It’s a game of embodiment, wordless play, spontaneity, and structure.

Turning elements of theatre practice into non-performative, self-exploration, consciousness-raising fun.

We start with being Fae together. Using breathwork and gentle movements drawn from Qigong and actor training, we start to follow impulses and listen to our bodies. You will receive guidance, in the form of somatic questions, physical demonstrations, and collaborative games, created and developed over my master’s degree in workshop leading and theatre practice.

After some time, we enter into the Possessed, where you are aided in creating personal sequences of action and thought in the form of heroes journeys and body-mind mantras. It’s a special feeling when you enter the flow of a rehearsed sequence you created. Learn to use symbolic actions as tools to affect your unconscious mind and practice controlling your conscious awareness.

No prior experience necessary; it’s designed to be accessible. It requires no talking; we see each other as presences, not our limiting identities.
