9th Hour Theatre Company

Join our company of performing artists to explore physical ensemble theatre.

Parkdale United Church

We invite anyone curious about 9th Hour's style of theatre to join us for a workshop. It offers an opportunity for newcomers and seasoned theatre artists alike to learn what we do or sharpen their theatre skills and techniques further by engaging with us in physical ensemble theatre (definition below). Led by our experienced team of directors and facilitators, participants will work alongside the company's performing artists and get a taste of what it's like to be part of an ensemble theatre production.9th Hour defines physical ensemble theatre as working together to tell a story in which all performers take on multiple roles and are all equally essential in telling the story. The emphasis is on high touch, high impact, expressive sound and movement, often involving close contact.<a href="https://www.9th-hour.ca/post/physical-ensemble-theatre-workshop" title="https://www.9th-hour.ca/post/physical-ensemble-theatre-workshop" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">READ the original post</a> on 9th Hour's website.Workshop DetailsParticipants should dress comfortably with clothing and footwear suitable for movement.
