‘Performance and Voice’ explores the connection between body and voice, and is inspired by the experimental approach of the Roy Hart Theatre to the embodied voice on stage. We will work on vocal musicality, improvisation, singing, speech, and the body in performance. Participants will work through imagination and exercises to develop presence, confidence and body awareness in space. The work will evolve to include composition, polyphonic singing, individual and collective interpretation. The work will encourage authentic vocal expression.

Bring a memorised text (song, poetry, prose) of between 50 and 200 words. Participants from all fields and levels of experience are welcome.
languages: English, basic French, German, Dutch, and Portuguese.

My identity is my biography and my voice expresses that. Coming from a multi-cultural and multi-ethnic family (Indonesian-Dutch), I was challenged to discover my own identity. Since 1981 the Roy Hart Theatre work been most powerful means to this end. I’m deeply moved each and every time a person discovers the beauty of their own unique voice. After that, the process of integration can begin. To be a guiding companion on that road is a great gift and the core of my teaching.

Feeling our voice is something wonderful. It is to live and to revive, to create and recreate, to give and to receive of ourselves, of others and things. A fantastic new world that opens its discovery every day and every moment. My approach is focused on you. On your needs and what you want to develop, bringing awareness and consciousness to your voice, body, mind and… soul. The field we create together is something magical, a wonderful moment that only happens once.
