Instructor: Jamin Jollo

Since the dawn of time, humans have used theatrical masks to inspire character growth and enhance their storytelling. This performance-driven series will unlock the dialogue between mask and actor by building a unique physical vocabulary, as guided by theatre maker Jamin Jollo. Explore an evolution of ancient techniques with Basel masks, half masks, and character noses to create scenes with unbridled passion, zeal, and command of the stage.
