Course summary

Taught in Berlin, please apply directly to arthaus.berlin. We are delighted to run MA/MFA programmes with arthaus.berlin (formerly LISPA). arthaus.berlin is a centre of artistic research, innovation and individuation. It seeks to inspire the theatre and performance arts of tomorrow and appeals to those committed to the creation of their own work - whether as actors, performers, directors or writers for the stage. The journey it offers is both poetic and practical, integrating a deep curiosity for life with a passion for theatre and performance. Why choose this course? The Integral Movement and Performance Practice MFA at arthaus.berlin / Thomas Prattki Centre in collaboration with Rose Bruford College addresses advanced practitioners in the performing, healing and educational arts, who wish to deepen their research into the practices of embodiment and devised performance as a pathway to self-development, whether in settings for personal growth as in the movement and performance-based educational and healing arts or for the development of professional performance projects which are rooted in a dialogue with one’s own body self and its resonances to inner and outer worlds. The program seeks to integrate the research of the French theatre reformer Jacques Lecoq into the process of embodiment, Jungian and post-Jungian concepts on personal growth, an exploration of mythologies and shamanic traditions from around the world, studies of the neurosciences, contemporary discourses on performance and self-development as well as a regular practice of creating performative projects throughout the program. It aims to propose pathways towards the development of personal autonomy, self-awareness and the expression of one’s creative potential as important aspects of fully embodied individuation processes in art and life. The programme is a 4 year part-time program. View the MFA Programme Specification: https://www.bruford.ac.uk/learn/postgraduate-courses/courses-at-arthaus-berlin/
