Did you know we are a charity? Since its opening in 1866, Shoreditch Town Hall has witnessed everything from Victorian reform and Sylvia Pankhurst’s activism, to vibrant boxing matches, and the electrifying Whirl-Y-Gigs in the 90s. Each era has left its mark on this iconic building to make it the creative venue it is today, and now it’s our turn to care for its future. Click here to find out more and donate
MimeLondon returns to Shoreditch Town Hall for 2026 with another series of workshops for artists.
How do you extend the realm of what’s possible as an actor on stage?
Inspired by the work of Etienne Decroux and his assistants, as well as building on Theatre Re’s critically acclaimed repertoire, this workshop will explore concrete ways to unlock the full expressive potential of the body. Through playful and rigorous training, participants will learn how to use liberating and clear vocabularies to create highly physical work.
Each day will begin with physical conditioning, to then progress towards ensemble work, technique, repertoire, and culminate in the opportunity to devise a short presentation true to the Theatre Re process.
This workshop is designed for professional and semi-professional performers, actors, dancers as well as visual artists, students and recent graduates. No previous experience of Corporeal Mime is required to join, only your curiosity and playfulness.
This five-day workshop is led by Guillaume Pigé (Theatre Re Director and RADA Associate Teacher) along with core Theatre Re members.
“One of the UK's most admired physical theatre companies.” The Scotsman
“Theatre Re excels at transforming small, intimate stories into whirling, viscerally physical extravagance.” What’s On Stage
Guillaume Pigé is the Artistic Director and founder of Theatre Re. Originally from France, he has been living in the UK for the past 18 years. He trained with theatre makers and directors such as Andrew Visnevski, Steven Wasson, Corinne Soum, Daniel Stein and Thomas Leabhart.
His practice looks at intimate, difficult to talk about and sometimes taboo life experiences, and turns them into moving, viscerally physical, visually striking poetic theatre to address global human challenges.
His work was performed in more than seventeen countries, notably at The Cerventino Festival (Mexico), Hong Kong Arts Festival, New Victory Theater (USA), National Taichung Theatre (Taiwan), National Centre for Performing Arts (China) and London International Mime Festival (UK). He has been an Associate Teacher at R.A.D.A since 2011 and is regularly invited to give workshops about Theatre Re's creative process and physical language throughout the UK and internationally.
