Peter gives masterclasses to specialists such as
puppetry and theatre practitioners and students, sometimes
leading to a performance. |
|
He says: "Breathing life into inanimate objects
is one challenge; transforming, say, a spoon into a recognisable
mother figure is another! You have to understand both
the object's potential and its limitations; to do that
you've got first to respect the material from which it's
made. Only then can an object become the meeting point
of visual and dramatic art". |
|
Peter has run courses at Institut du théâtre
des marionnettes, Charleville (France); Figurentheaterkolleg,
Bochum (Germany); Hochschule für Schauspielkunst
Ernst Busch, Berlin; UCLA, California, the Puppet Centre
in London and at several international festivals. |
|
On request, Peter also runs workshops for teachers and
for schools at both primary and secondary level. Where
appropriate, and if there are a sufficient number of sessions,
these could lead to an informal sharing or performance. |
