 Methodology
The course is based on an eclectic mix of folk, classical,
contemporary and avantgarde methodologies and techniques–
both local and global–to inculcate a holistic understanding of
the need and objectives of performance. The pedagogic
sessions are modular. While based on both established and
non‐conventional theories of performance, the course itself
prioritises their application in actual situations.

This is achieved through a daily performance‐oriented

classroom sessions followed by “field” sessions on stage,
studio, or public spaces. The course covers a blend of
performance traditions from the  Natyshastra, through
Stanislavsky, Strasberg and Meisner to Meyerhold, Bertolt
Brecht, Michel Chekhov, Grotowski, Peter Brook and Phillip
Zarrilli.
