 Masterclass: Zen in the Art of Puppetry with Bernd Ogrodnik
Age Suitability: 16+

Sunday 11. October, kl. 15 - 18

Félagsheimili Hvammstanga
​Main Stage

Bernd Ogrodnik focuses on the distinct relationship between the performer, puppet, and the audience and what links them together in this 3 hour masterclass for professionals and passionate amateurs.

The starting point is the theory that the puppeteer is a service-provider, who attempts to communicate to the audience a specific idea, story, or concept in order to entertain, educate, support, and/or inspire. Participants will explore the tools and techniques at hand to best achieve this goal of communication. Where does the energy to perform a puppet come from, and how does it best transfer to the audience? An exploration of breathing, awareness, movement, and balance will help us find some answers.

This program is a combination of lecture and hands-on exercises intended to offer puppeteers a refreshing look at the philosophical backbone to their Art.

​Places are limited.  Please register in advance.
Tickets: 5000
