Weekly theatre workshops

A series of workshops that were held at THOC Theatre Shelter as Wednesday Workshops from October to December last year will move to the Cyprus Theatre Museum in Limassol for a new season as Tuesday Workshops from March to May.

The workshops are aimed at participants of different ages and interests covering a wide range of topics and will be held weekly in Limassol. Each session lasts around three hours, from 4pm, and the upcoming dates and themes have been announced.

The first workshop is in a couple of days, on March 10, and it deals with theatrical writing for beginners. This is the first part of the workshop led by Alexia Papalazarou, part two will come later on in the month. There’s a limited number of seats so if interested, make sure to contact 25-343464 to reserve a spot.

In two weeks’ time Korina Kontaxaki will address physical expression and breathing for the actor with yoga-based techniques. For an introduction to theatrical direction, head to Paris Erotokritou’s workshop on March 24 where he will focus on the early stages of the rehearsal process.

The final March workshop is part two of theatrical writing with Alexia Papalazarou, on the last day of the month. From then on, four more workshops are planned for the season until May 12 and will continue to be all in Greek. The only thing to remember is to pre-book and wear comfortable clothing and shoes.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
