Storytelling is one of the most interesting and involving forms of communication. Unluckily our education system does not lay sufficient emphasis to develop this skill in children. Since eternity, our ancestors have been passing down their cultural heritage to us through stories alone. Stories are what spike our interest in the lives and experiences of others. When we add theatre to the mix, it results in a beautiful amalgamation of the two arts. Kids are far more curious and expressive than adults. Hence they can hone these skills at a very young age. And if they do, it will have a tremendous influence on them in their growing years. Their creativity will outshine rather than be suppressed. In our kids workshop for storytelling and theatre in Bangalore we will cover all the nuances of storytelling, writing, acting, performing and theatre presentation in a carefully curated series of classes by our in-house expert facilitators. In theatre, we will guide them how to do a presentation on...

You can rent an art studio in Bangalore Indiranagar at FLUX for your art to perform, to exhibit, to rehearse, to teach a class, to have a workshop, to run a course, to shoot for a photography session, to shoot your movie, to hold a talk or a seminar, or to run a music jam. We know that art is highly dependent on energy. And the energy that gets created in a space also gets translated into the work getting created. Simple things like a hot cup of coffee, a grey sky, or a bird outside the window become important and affect the process of creation. This is because the creator is constantly feeling and is sensitive to these small things that she/he perceives. We are aware of this and therefore the energy and vibe that has been created in this visual and performing arts theatre at FLUX is of a free, conducive and energizing nature. FLUX is a collaborative art space that lives ours and breathes through the people who enter it. It is where ideas meet plans and people to take shape and form to...

1. What does it take to be a director? 2. How is a theatre director different from a film director? 3. What are the principles of direction and what are the rules of direction? 4. Are there any rules? 5. What about ethical and moral rules? A director clearly has a lot of power to make important decisions. But that also invests the idea of responsible and ethical decision making on the director. At FLUX, we offer theatre direction classes. These are not only process driven but also take into account theoretical and ethical direction. As an actor, the actor entrusts the director with him or herself. Thus it becomes the director’s responsibility to choreograph the piece and the people with love and care. Many directors can easily look at actors as resources. They just forget they are human beings who feel and get affected by their role. At FLUX, we also make sure that we train our budding directors into responsible and caring people first. They must learn how to manage power dynam...

There is something very beautiful about seeing a performer on stage that is truly alive, present and vulnerable. Without even one of these things, the performance falls flat. It will not be able to reach the audience in its true sense. For achieving this sort of a presence, the mind and body need to come together and connect. In this course in physical theatre in Bangalore, we will not only find this connection theoretically but also through experience and constant improvisational exercises. Improvisation is a very important aspect of any form of devising. It is so because this is where there is a free flow of ideas and constructions. This is where people can truly express what they are going through in life. And then they pick up certain parts to patch them together with the craft of storytelling. Keep reading…
