G. Lambranzi is using picture puzzles to connect the dance-technical and dramaturgical aspects which play a part by inventing a theatrical dance.
The workshop combines practical an theoretical lessons – with the aim to read Lambranzis pictures as concrete information.
Well known Commedia dell Arte characters like Pulcinella an Skaramutza will be taken as examples for this splendid technique of theatre art.
On the basis of prepared structures every member of the workshop is invited to find an own way of interpretation.
