Do you want to create clear characters and situations that don’t require a verbal explanation? Do you want to build a scenario that doesn’t need detailed clarification?
Then this workshop is definitely for you! Silent scenes and characters are the main focus here. With mime work, extensive facial expression and gesture training, and a touch of clowning techniques, we cook up stories that don’t need words. And we will take all the time for that!

Teacher
Anne Rab
Anne Rab lived and worked as an actor, director, and theatre educator for 12 years in Leipzig, Germany. She is part of the leading team for ‘Momenta’, the international festival for improvisation in Leipzig, and is a long-standing member of the Theaterturbine.
Currently, Anne resides in Vienna, Austria, where she continues her work teaching, directing and performing regularly with the Viennese improv community. Anne also works internationally teaching and performing, as well as developing improvised formats and shows. She performs with several duo-partners, including: Sarah Arndtz (Heroes), Ursula Anna Baumgartner (Bemme&Melange), and Jim Libby (The Messengers), and is a passionate advocate for community awareness in the world of improv.
Her interest for improvisation started over 15 years ago in an ensemble of clowns that made up stories without words, and this work drives and fascinates her to this day: exploring non-verbal improvisation and teaching bodywork to actors, improvisers, and anyone that wants to discover and learn.
