Tuesday 10 November, free introductory evening: Aspettando PLAY (Waiting for PLAY). Discover the evening →
PLAY, the theatre game
PLAY is NOA's theatre gym, led by Marco Cavicchioli: evenings devoted to the actor's work and its expressive possibilities, through words, reading, storytelling, voice, interpretation and the body.
At its heart is play: exploring, inventing, experimenting and discovering theatre with curiosity and freedom, without the pressure of having to prove anything.
PLAY is open to anyone: to those approaching theatre for the first time and to those who want to rediscover, broaden or question their own experience. You can come out of simple curiosity, with no preparation at all.
Attendance is free: every Thursday evening the door is open. Come when you want, if you want. Your first session is free.
30 euros a month. Less than a coffee a day.
What happens in the gym
Each evening stands on its own: there is no starting point to miss. You come in when you want and find yourself straight inside the work, with individual and group exercises.
Text and storytelling
Reading aloud, relating to a text, building a story, including from texts brought by participants.
Voice and body
The expressive possibilities of voice and body, interpretation, building a character: Marco offers his wealth of theatrical tools and practices.
Work that changes
PLAY is a work in progress and does not follow a rigid programme: the group's interests and curiosities guide the work, and Marco chooses together with whoever is there which aspects to explore in depth.
