Lecoq Neutral Mask: Three-Day Masterclass

This three day intensive course brings the foundational training of the Lecoq School’s Pedagogy into full scope and allows participants to experience the foundational pillar of physical training which is Neutrality engaging participants to access a state of presence and spatial engagement, understanding the point-fixé and rhythm and timing alongside developing comprehensive techniques in Mime-based improvisations. 

Sean Croft trained at École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq, he is a Director, Fight & Movement Choreographer, Teacher and Artistic Director of BodyScramble.

The Lecoq technique is about the performers engagement, listening physically and their connection in the space, this is achieved primarily with students training in The Neutral Mask and are recognised as essential tools to any professional working actor, in its most basic or grandest of themes. It is a style that hugs you warmly and sticks with you, adaptable and diverse.
