BMTT: Balinese Mask work (part 1)

Service Description

BMTT and Fitzmaurice Voicework (PART 1) There's a thing that happens in performance you've felt it when someone walks into the space and the atmosphere in the room changes. Not because of what they're doing. Because of what they are. In Bali, they call it Taksu. It's the animating force. The ineffable electricity. The thing that makes an audience lean forward without knowing why. You already have it. You just don’t recognise it. Yet. Over 2 and a half days , internationally acclaimed actor trainer Dr. Budi Miller and UNESCO-designated master teacher of Balinese mask performance, along side Fabio Motta, Associate Teacher of Fitzmaurice voicework and Mask work specialist will guide you to experience your Taksu! Drawing from Balinese performing arts, breath and nervous system work, mask, and ancient non-Western performance traditions, we go Deep. We strip back everything that's getting in the way of your most powerful, magnetizing, ridiculous, and alive performing self. You'll work with breath, body, space, and something harder to name. You'll discover how the ancient portal of masks unlock physical presence you didn't know you had. You'll learn why your nervous system is the instrument and how to play it. Expect to sweat. Expect to be surprised. Expect to leave with something you can't quite explain to people who weren't there. Dates: November 13th, 14th and 15th. Friday evening: 6:30pm-9:30pm Saturday and Sunday: 10am - 5pm
