Come and get your monthly Theatre Re fix! Theatre Re's monthly Sunday professional classes are continuing in 2025 at Shoreditch Town Hall.
Rooted in Theatre Re’s training and creative process, sessions will focus on conditioning the body in preparation for: rigorous training, Corporeal Mime repertoire and technique, as well as improvisation and composition inspired by the company’s current projects.
Whether you are a seasoned professional performer wanting to enhance your physical presence and the specificity of your actions on stage, a newcomer to the theatre looking for a specific technique to ground your explorations, or an artist in need of a fresh approach to making, participants will develop their skills and creativity in an open, playful and generous environment.
Sessions will be led by Guillaume Pigé (Theatre Re Director and RADA Associate Teacher) and Claudia Marciano (Theatre Re Performer and Teacher). No previous experience in Corporeal Mime is needed to join, only your curiosity, playfulness and desire to learn! All sessions will focus on different aspects of Theatre Re’s work and can be taken independently or as a whole.
"The Monthly Sessions helped me expand my creativity and improve my area of work. Learning different techniques to work with body, movement and imagination was eye opening."
Feedback from Workshop Participant 2024
"It encouraged me to let go of preconceived notions of performance, and break old habits of physicality."
Feedback from Workshop Participant 2024
"I had no idea what to expect. It was all new, useful, and challenging."
Feedback from Workshop Participant 2024
"The session was shaped following everyone’s needs and things we shared at the start of the session, which was really helpful. It was great to learn the logistics and stories behind the technique. Very specific advice and feedback to each participant was also something great to get."
