Acting doesn’t live only in the voice or the mind — it lives in the body.
Storytelling Through Movement is an exploratory, movement-based class designed to help actors become more embodied, expressive, and physically connected to their work.
Led by Company member Zoë Papia, this class invites actors to move beyond habitual patterns and rediscover their bodies as powerful storytelling tools. Through guided exercises, physical exploration, and ensemble work, participants will unlock deeper emotional access, greater presence, and new pathways into character.
Participants will:
- Develop a stronger connection between body, impulse, and emotion
- Discover movement-based tools for character creation
- Build confidence and freedom in physical expression
- Expand their storytelling range beyond text and voice
- Experience a more intuitive, embodied approach to acting
This class is designed to help actors break through internal blocks, access deeper creativity, and cultivate a sense of freedom and autonomy in their work.
Actors of all experience levels are welcome.
Whether you’re new to movement work or looking to deepen your existing practice, this class provides a supportive, exploratory environment to grow as a physical storyteller.
