Actors -

Before you play a character…
how do you meet the empty space?

As Peter Brook reminds us, theatre begins the moment we step into it.

The neutral mask is a powerful tool to awaken presence, stillness, and clarity movement and expression-
the zero point before character.
A blank canvas. A body of potential.

From here, we build a foundation for character, rhythm, impulse, and a deeper engagement with space-
stripping away habit and returning to the essential.

This is where performance begins.

Join us to explore the stillness, breath, and aliveness of the neutral mask.

Join us for a 2-day immersive Neutral Mask Workshop where we return to the “zero point” - the place before character, before story, before habit. Through breath, silence, and physical exploration, you’ll rediscover the foundation of presence, clarity, and expression.

This practice opens a powerful space of awareness. The neutral mask holds no expression - yet reveals everything. As you move, you begin to see what’s always been there: your patterns, your impulses, your way of meeting the world.

✨ What remains when character falls away?
✨ Can you become time, space, and rhythm itself?

For actors, performers, educators, and curious movers ready to deepen their practice and reconnect with the essentials.

Over two days, you will:
• Develop presence through stillness and breath
• Build a strong foundation for movement and character analysis
• Heighten your physical awareness
• Explore space, impulse, and rhythm beyond narrative
• Let go of habitual patterns and return to a neutral state

🗓 May 23–24
⏰ 10:00am – 5:00pm
📍 Open to all levels — no experience necessary

Spaces are limited. Booking link in bio.
