SUMMARY:Laban Method Movement Analysis (for Actors)
DESCRIPTION:Laban Method Movement Analysis (for Actors) \nwith Kathryn Reeves \nThursday September 7\, 10am \nThe Bus Stop Theatre \nA system of movements to aid actors in getting into a character using their physicality\, asking artists to go through and explore in the 8 different effort actions. Artists need to come with a monologue prepared. It is highly physical\, and highly rewarding. \nLaban Movement Analysis was developed by Rudolf Laban (1879-1958).  Laban was a scientist\, teacher\, artist\, social activist\, visionary\, and a creator.  Combined with Irmgard Bartenieff’s (1890 – 1981) contributions to the Body category\, the LMA work is a living system that continues to evolve. \nThe Effort actions\, or what Laban sometimes described as dynamics\, is a system for understanding the more subtle characteristics about movement with respect to inner intention. The difference between punching someone in anger and reaching for a glass is slight in terms of body organization – both rely on extension of the arm. The attention to the strength of the movement\, the control of the movement and the timing of the movement are very different. \nEffort has four subcategories (Effort factors)\, each of which has two opposite polarities (Effort elements). \nLength: 4 hours \nPrice: $40 \nNOTES: 15 person limit

She will also speak to theatre-makers interested in creating their own posters\, providing design tips and secrets for amateur and emerging designers in their own right. \nLength: 4 Hours \nPrice: $20
