Workshop with Matt Feerick - Round 2

Second round of sessions this Saturday 11th January 2014 for the ’Creating an Outdoor Performance’ workshop led by Matt Feerick at the Université d’Artois.

The students made the most of the Xmas break to work on their characters and learn a few flamenco moves with Maria, Spanish Erasmus student in Arras this year. Chimène and François had to create a choreography for two performers and Aurélien needed to get acquainted with oenology for the purpose of his role.

At the beginning of the session on Saturday, Matt taught the students some of the yoga techniques he had learnt in Thailand in December, after showing them extracts of the film directed by Peter Greenaway ’The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover’, from which the students could find inspiration for their acting.

The session continues until the end of the week.
