“Suspense and Surprise: The X-Factor of Burlesque”
How can a focus on the theatrical elements of Suspense and Surprise help you create acts that are signature, memorable, and mesmerizing? How can we define and understand Suspense and Surprise from a theatrical point of view? Why are these such vital components of all great theatre and how can you harness them to make your burlesque performance exciting, rousing, and compelling? Explore and re-imagine the fundamental powers of Suspense and Surprise and learn how to start using them to achieve the full potential of your own star quality. Students will workshop techniques for creating, rehearsing, and performing burlesque, all from an actor’s perspective. The processes and exercises you will be participating in during the workshop will also help unlock the tools to combat self-consciousness and stage fright. All will play with the ideas of “Active Intention” and Secrets onstage. Bring note-taking materials and plenty of childlike playfulness.
