Through a structured series of exercises and vocal improvisations, combining the disciplines of the Roy Hart Theatre voice, body, and imagination work, this workshop invites participants to explore and embody their personal life stories, and learn to tell these with presence and vocal confidence. We will engage in voice and body work to move into expression through
personal stories and the art of storytelling. Days will commence with physical and vocal warm-ups, followed by individual and group work incorporating vocal sound creation and accompanying physical movement. Afternoons
will focus on storytelling with individual, pair, and group exploration, and voice and singing work in the Wolfsohn, Hart, and Roy Hart Theatre tradition. Each day will build on what emerges in the previous days, culminating in individual and group presentations.

Following registration, please send a letter of motivation to info@midderighvox.com.  We will work in English and French, translating as necessary.

Worked with Roy Hart and was part of the Roy Hart Theatre (before 1991)

As a facilitator and teacher, I have always appreciated the psychology of group dynamics and harnessing the alchemy of collective energy to create a frame within which individuals are empowered to express themselves with clarity and confidence.

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
Mary Oliver

As human beings we share the burning desire and largely untapped potential for extraordinary achievement. I coach people to harness this potential to grow, by engaging the power of voice and story. Our stories connect us. By giving expression to our innermost selves we free ourselves to live authentically, with passion and purpose. When we engage the power of voice we can be the change they wish to see in the world.

I have trained with the following Roy Hart Voice Teachers: Carol Mendelsohn, Saule Ryan, Edda Heeg, Linda Wise, and Pascale Ben.

In my work at the Roy Hart Center, I try to give more substance and soul, more space and silence, to the myriad sounds, voices and songs that flow through us and surround us. I (re)discover their expressive necessity, and their archaic, collective, animal, vegetable, cellular roots; their unheard and uncharted characters. Together with words, movement, and images they are like living beings, so dear to our hearts, our minds, our bellies, our bones.
