Laboratory "Original"

Dear friends, finally we can share with you a joyful and long-awaited event!
We continue the session of intensive workshops at DEREVO Art House in Dresden.
This is the school of Anton Adasinsky, the founder of Derevo Theatre. The first session was successfully held in May 2023 and gathered people from different countries both professionals and amateurs at the school.
The six-day intensive laboratory in autumn 2023 (from 29.09 to 4.10) will be dedicated to the most important theme in Derevo's work - the Laughing World.
This is the planet where Anton began his training at Slava Polunin's Lycedey Theatre. And from those unforgettable times to today's solo performance "The Last Clown on Earth" - a long road has been travelled. But Humour, Joke, Celebration remain the main pillars of Anton and Derevo Laboratorium's creativity.
In addition to daily basic work with the body, intellect and emotions, the participants of the October session will get acquainted with the history of clowning, skomorokhs and facialists. English clowning, Cromoschny Mir in Russia and much more....
Of course, it is impossible to cover such a huge topic in six days, but we consider this session as the beginning of a very important, fundamental base of any creativity. And that means there will be a continuation. And, we hope, it will happen in one amazing place!


Also planned attendance of pedagogues:


  • Anton Adasinsky - Everything written above.
  • Elena Yarovaya - Professional dreaming, creating props from nothing. 
  • Makhina Dzhuraeva - Hatha Yoga
  • Daniel Williams - The Sound of Performance. Audible and inaudible




On 4th Oktober there will be an open show-improvisationbased on the results of the Laboratory.

IN PROGRAMME


physical training/Anton Adasinskiy

Derevo exercises created by Anton during the entire existence of the theatre. Working with the body, emotions, intellect, rhythm. Dance techniques, fantasy exercises, which is one of the most important themes in Derevo's work.

CREATION OF PROPS, COSTUME, MASKs./elena yarovaya

The actress and teacher Elena Yarovaya is the author and designer of scenery and costumes for almost all DEREVO works, as well as the author of the Light Partitory for several DEREVO theatre productions.

"....You create a character on stage: How will you dress the character? Where will he live ? Quickly making a temporary version of the costume and scenography is the key for the success of a performance design. This is designer's aikido - don't go against the material. The magic of unnecessary things". Elena Yarovaya.

Street Performance/Anton Adasinskiy

Teacher Anton Adasinsky will elaborate on the topic of street performance or in non-theatrical spaces. At the end of this session, participants may have the opportunity to perform under the sky. This will be decided during the workshop. A selection of Derevo's street actions is here.
