ATIS
Acting Techniques Intensive Seminars with STUDIO || ROSA as part of an exploratory theatre undertaking called Feeling the PULSE
 Directed by Prof Grzegorz Zió³kowski


August–September 2015
Brzezinka, forest location of the Grotowski Institute
In English

The seminars are of a highly practical and exploratory nature, and are dedicated to the study of elementary and advanced skills of the performer, such as:
  • to be open to dialogue and sharing with others
  • to integrate action, silence, sound, speech and song
  • to react swiftly and precisely to impulses which come from partners, literary and other texts, images, music, space and nature as well as from the inner sphere of associations, imagination and memories.

The ATIS – associated since September 2012 with the Faculty of Polish and Classical Philology of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznañ – is addressed to those international artists, researchers and students who wish to study acting and theatre, as well as to those who would like to deepen in a practical way their understanding of human creativity and expression.

STUDIO || ROSA (Readiness, Openness, Sharing, Actor) is a space between people that serves long-term work on oneself and research into the relationship between actor training and theatre creation.

The work is focused on awareness and the harmonisation of breath, body and voice. At its heart is a quality of lightness, sought for in the flow of actions and dialogues with oneself, one’s environment, partner, group. We strive to make it present in training and in improvisations, understood as a space for being playful. Improvisations help to build a bridge between training and the spheres of the imagination, composition and creation. It is in this domain where performances appear – created by a common effort.

Apart from conducting research into actor training and creating performances, STUDIO || ROSA:
  • leads ATIS Acting Techniques Intensive Seminars
  • holds guest performances and work sessions for students as part of the ACTING TECHNIQUES programme
  • helps students in their theatre initiatives
  • co-organises (together with the Drama, Theatre and Performance Department of Adam Mickiewicz University, the university’s “Masks” Theatre Centre and Biuro Podró¿y Theatre) the MASKS Forum in Poznañ, a platform for dialogue through theatre.

Rosa is Polish for “dew”; the Studio is called Pracownia Rzemios³a oraz Sztuki Aktorskiej ROSA in Polish, which literally translates as “acting craft and art work-room”.

STUDIO || ROSA works in the Theatre Studio in Collegium Maius of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznañ and wishes to thank Professors Dobrochna Ratajczakowa, El¿bieta Kalemba-Kasprzak and Bogumi³a Kaniewska for their ongoing support.
