"As Michael Chekhovs pupil, I learned more than acting...
Every time he spoke, the world seemed to become bigger and more exciting...
Acting became an art that increased your life and mind."
Marilyn Monroe

Improvisation as Art is the core of the creative process. It includes curiosity to take risks, to open up for the unknown and surprising as well as the skill to shape the given material may it be text, movement, music or space. Creating and rehearsing a play, choreography or a musical score, needs a strong sense for Rhythm and Tempo. This is where Composition comes into play. The Feeling for Composition creates contours and gives the expression of ideas, dialogues, movements, shapes and colors a deeper meaning and visible form. The scenic village of Groznjan welcomes you again to MCEs annual summer event in Istria.

Building a Character: Me is the Other
Hamburg, Germany, September 30 - October 3, 2023
All true artists bear within themselves a deeply rooted and often unconscious desire for transformation. (M. Chekhov) The Other, i.e. the character in a play, is always bigger than the personal experience of the performer. Michael Chekhov therefore asks us to look at the differences between the character and ourselves rather than at the similarities. If we dive into the inner and outer world of this other person, we will discover a whole new world.
