Character Medicine explores the Psychophysical Relationship between actor and character within physical and energetic approaches such as Imagery, Spiritual Practices, and Dream Work. Working with monologues of their choosing, participants will discover new methods for creating characters and explore how the subconscious image informs psychophysical embodiment. We will focus on revitalizing the actor’s relationship to play and imagination, as well as strengthening trust in their intuition and process. By cultivating a better understanding of the character, participants will deepen their understanding of themselves as humans and artists.
