What is Action Theater™?
Action Theater™ is an improvisational physical theater training and performance method (created by Ruth Zaporah). The disciplined practice incorporates movement, vocalization, and speech. These exercises lead the physical actor toward strong, clear, spontaneous, and artful improvisations. The skills learned are appropriate for all actors whether they follow an improvisation or a script.
The exercises of Action Theater™ isolate the components of action – time, space, shape, energy, emotion – so they can be examined, experienced, and altered in order to expand the expressive palette and the inner experience of the actor. The Action Theater exercises quiet the mind and clarify focus allowing for a thriving embodied imagination.
Action Theater™ can also be a performance method where the experiencing of the body informs the content of the moment and offers a map, a way to proceed. through the spontaneous action of solo or group improvisations.
