Life on the Edge – Move like a Fly!
Move Like a Fly! – Physical Theatre Workshop
Join NDP Circus Co-Director, Maria Tarokh, for a fun and engaging workshop exploring insect movement and metamorphosis.
Inspired by NDP Circus’s Robberfly performance outside The Box, Tavistock Place, Plymouth at 12:45-1:30pm on 30th July.
You are encouraged to come to both events.
Using physical theatre and movement exercises we will embody insects at all stages of their journey; from maggot to magnificent robberfly! The workshop will see participants rolling, gliding, jumping, turning. We will explore how to physicalise the speed of the robberfly and how to develop a character through movement.
This event is offered by the Life on the Edge Project, part of South Devon National Landscape. We are working together to restore a coastline buzzing with wildlife.
