Belonging to a steady movement of actors and directors of theatre and film in China conscious of the visual appeal of the actor, and building on his training at the Jacques Lecoq school in Paris, Benjamin Teare researches and develops acting through movement in this seven day workshop.

Rendering visible and playful is a core principal in physical theatre. A space, a conflict, an emotion becomes visible when it is played out in the body, using rhythm, tension, attitudes, breath etc. You and I can play if we react to one another and both know the rules of the game. It is precisely in this alchemy - the space between you and I, between an action and it's reaction – that theatre can happen.
