A Ship of Fools

‘And one day looking inside I saw in that space between the belly and the chest a little ship from which my inner fools were leading my life…’

A rare opportunity to work with internationally acclaimed performance artists Yael Karavan & Tanya Khabarova

The key concept of this work is that we each have a ship of fools within us. These fools represent the different traits that shape our personality. Each one of them, at a time, leads our boat; the lover, the thinker, the joker… We have so many characters within us that try to express themselves in various ways. I have thus developed methods of finding these ‘traits’ through the use of character-based work, searching to enable these various fools within us to reveal their stories, like a journey within our own archetypes.

The workshop will offer a warm up composed from a variety of training tools; stretching, strength, centre, spontaneity, imagination, improvisation, presence, physical awareness, work with objects and rhythm, and will propose various approaches to discovering your fools in a creative atmosphere.
