The Body in Resistance

12 May – 15 May 2026
Chisenhale Dance Space

A four-day embodied exploration of the language of Federico García Lorca, focusing on desire, resistance, and physical presence through intensive scene and movement work. Using physical theatre tools and embodiment practices, participants investigate how Lorca’s imagery and rhythm can be activated through the body. Through exercises, improvisation, and focused scene exploration, actors develop greater awareness of impulse, tension, and emotional energy in performance. The lab invites performers to approach the text as a living force, allowing physical presence and instinct to shape the storytelling.
