Stop acting and start living.
De-Learning and acting organization for professional performers.
By Anna Sabaté with the collaboration of Teresa García Valenzuela
A seminar aimed at active actors and actresses who wish to keep their instruments in tune, understanding that the specificity, richness and organicity of each performer is unique and goes through permanent training that allows us to easily and safely access each of the challenges. professionals we address.
How to unclog personal impediments to reach the entire human spectrum of a character?
How to unlearn vices acquired throughout our career that prevent us from living the true life of the character in the “here and now”?
How to relearn to respond from the most organic impulses of the actor/character?
How do we come to truly do, think, live, feel under imaginary circumstances?
Anna Sabaté proposes the fusion of the self-knowledge work offered by her own Sabaté Method© with the Meisner Technique
On the one hand, the Sabaté Method© offers a space for exploration that has been nourished by different acting and spiritual currents to investigate the most specific aspects of each actor/actress and deploy their full creative potential. The instrument of each actor is put at the service of the story when we detect and dissolve the interferences, the saboteurs and the defense mechanisms that do not allow us to flow on stage.
On the other hand, the Meisner Technique emphasizes the importance of “action” on stage. To interpret is to “do.” We behave truly in every moment if we learn to truly live from the impulses of the characters and from the imaginary circumstances marked by the text. Learning through this technique requires a high level of dedication, dedication and discipline.
Likewise, the training includes psychophysical preparation by Teresa García Valenzuela based on Play Spaceness, where concepts such as attention, intention, presence, body and consciousness, and Viewpoints, a way of structuring language, are explored. of the body in time and space that gives meaning to the action itself.
