    Workshop for aspiring expert theatre viewers
    This workshop teaches participants about "subjects" and "expression" in theatre, with the aim to hone expert viewing skills. By interpreting classical texts with a contemporary mindset, participants will discuss the issue of "subjects" in theatre, and investigate the characteristics of the body, text, imagery, and other media used in theatre productions, in order to find our more about means of "expression." The idea is to help attendants understand the literary and artistic qualities of a play, with a lecture based on stock footage, as well as practical exercise in physical expression. As participants will do some basic acting in order to improve their viewing rather than acting skills, acting experience is not necessary.

    Supported by the Agency for Cultural Affairs Government of Japan in the fiscal 2009
