Block 6 – Masks

£81.00

Tuesday 06 January – 10 February 2026

Over 6 weeks, this course covers the basics of stage combat, including rising action, fight sequences, and the physicality of action rooted in text.

Participants will learn to safely create the illusion of physical combat while building confidence in dynamic performance. Inspired by iconic fight scenes from playwrights like Sophocles, Shakespeare, and Dennis Potter, the course examines how physical conflict enhances tension and character development. Through practical exercises, participants will master choreography, timing, and the techniques needed to bring high-stakes moments to life on stage.
