How to Tackle this Machine?

Running time 2 hours 30 minutes. Intermissions upon request. 

Workshop leader doc. Branko Jordan, UL AGRFT 

Let’s take a sentence from the Manifesto of an Actress: "Theatre must be playful and free."
Now, let’s look into the depth of her eyes, where a tear is forming. On the one side, the desire, the urge for creativity, on the other, the context that surrounds us: anxiety, fear, isolation. Between the two, there is an endless field of the unknown. How to enter it, how to fill it, how to respond, where to turn, how to act. 
Tackling creativity as the basic principle. Circumstances that are required. Decisions that are necessary. 
Methodology based on the experience from the corona semester, in the form of a workshop, allows the insight into the process of the actor’s work.

About leader

Assistant professor Branko Jordan studied stage acting and artistic word at the UL AGRFT. After graduation he continued his education in theatre anthropology at ISTA. He was a member of several institutional artistic ensembles, and participated in many, often international, co-production, he is active on the independent scene (Betontanc, Beton Ltd.) – as well as an author, co-author, dramaturg or creator of the concepts for performances. In theatre, he is not only interested in acting, nor in being committed to a single ensemble, but views theatre as a whole in which he can create in different segments. He is a studious artist whose energy is internalised, and his creative method ostensibly calm, with a pinch of humour, and a university lecturer for stage acting and artistic word at the chair of stage acting of the UL AGRFT. 

The workshop takes place along with the exhibition What a Fruitful Performance: Museum of our Loves.
