Period Movement for Plays and Operas
Perhaps you would like a workshop in manners/etiquette, gesture, and/or dance for your period production of Shakespeare or Moliere!
I have given numerous workshops for university productions and theatre companies. We cover how one stands, walks, bows as well as period gesture and dance forms. Period sources and iconography are used as the foundation of these classes.
