Workshop: FACILITATOR/JOKER*, Mixed Company Theatre

* ‘JOKER’ is the term used to identify a facilitator responsible for the Forum Theatre process. A ‘JOKER’ leads present-ation participants as the Forum play evolves, becoming the liaison between spectators and the characters on stage.

AUGUST 11 – AUGUST 13 2010

What you’ll learn
Become awake, aware and alert to your own negative patterns, becoming an effective facilitator of the same process for others. Develop skills that draw out self-expression; allow those participating to feel safe, and find their own voices in a unique and supportive environment that promotes dialogue, debate and change. ‘JOKERS’ create Forum Theatre scenarios to facilitate and explore internal manipulators including judgement, comparison and self-importance. All participants in this 3 day workshop receive a detailed supplemental reference handbook of Forum Theatre games and facilitation techniques.

Workshop: Masks of Manipulation, Mixed Company Theatre

AUGUST 9 – AUGUST 10, 2010

What you’ll learn
Invaluable tools for character development and the conflict-resolution process. Developed by Artistic Director, Simon Malbogat, these Commedia dell’Arte-style masks help define our recognition of different external manipulative energies. Each mask presents the face of universally-recognized emotional responses to these manipulative energies, allowing participants in this workshop to develop acute understanding of manipulation: how and why it happens, why we allow it and what to do about it.
