per class or monthly commitment // platform: Zoom – participants will receive a private link to join class weekly
–
this is a worldwide calling for young artists (13+) We will work on dialogues, monologues, poems and songs, so this class is a great fit for artists who’d like to apply for Drama Schools, auditions, scholarships etc.

Why out of comfort zone? What does comfort zone really mean? What’s wrong with comfort zone?
————————————————————————
All the responsibility is yours, all the choices, all the failure, all the success. In this class, every and any form and umbilical cord associated with social syndromes, forms of society, rules, prejudices, methods and techniques is dismissed, in order to provide space for the creation of a personalized “form” for the performer, based on their freedom of expression. Give no more directions to the artists. Let them do it their way.
FREEDOM AS THE ONLY COMFORT ZONE

And They Built Churches (NYC) Live Streaming at aejaa w/Chr. Atzinas (Berlin) Live Visuals


The first one is about music and the healing power of the voice and its therapeutic frequencies. The second one is an exercise about freedom of expression.
These healing sessions will start taking place Friday, the 3rd of April, 4pm New York time, and will go on every Friday until early May.
Every session will be a combination of wellness and empowerment of the core. A moment of deep relaxation and spiritual ascension. Connecting with the inside.
Melodic lines from the Byzantine musical womb and Countertenor vocals from the Classical music world, will meet with Shamanic voice drones and rhythmic patterns, all created Live and only with voices.
Guest musicians might appear in some session and will be announced earlier.
The events will be streaming from the account of And They Built Churches on facebook and shared by all co-hosts of this event. Please, find and follow so as to be notified when Live streaming begins.
Earphones or good quality speakers are essential for these sessions to be fully received in their best quality and effectiveness.

LFacting Announcement for a second research team creation and one artist or group residency. #online #classes

LFacting - research team creation announcement

Next Thursday, April 2nd, 7pm Greece time, I’m opening the class I have with a brilliant Greek artist based in Berlin.
This opening-calling is about a group of people I would like to create, which is going to be a research team and a collaborator on the dramaturgical analysis. This team will consist of 5-7 people who will audit the class, keep notes and get involved in the development of the project of the artist as consultants.
The project’s theme is “woman in tradition and how we can redevelop her status through art”. The basic means of the performance are music, voice and performance.
The rate will be 10 euros per person, per class and the classes will take place weekly for two hours, until the end of May. This classes language will be Greek for dramaturgical reasons.
Submit at lfacting3@gmail.com.
Thank you,
Labros
