I wrote a little poem for our times. It’s called ‘There’ll be a day, hopefully not long from now.’ It’s about hope. 💛#quarantine #isolation #socialdistancing #hope https://t.co/jVYz11BVp5

I created a digital collage in response to this years International Platform for Performer Training 2020! The theme was 'Words in, Of and For Performer Training' & I combined photographs and delegate comments to create this postcard. Check it out over on the @TDPTblog #IPPT2020

Can you remember the last time you were truly quiet and still? In today's film, we learn why stillness is absolutely fundamental for the performer. It's not just relaxation, but rather the moment before something begins. Stillness has to have potential. https://t.co/KgETm4RIah

The PATAZ collection features a documentary in which the 6 trainees talk about what the practice meant for them, things that they'd learned & how it related their own practice as a performer. Check out some of the other videos on our YouTube channel here: https://t.co/gUr8NmIcF6

[Drama Online @dramaonlinelib]

Our final video from PATAZ is all about YOU! We want to know - how would you use this online resource? What's your favourite letter or exercise? You can visit our YouTube channel for today's video, and to learn more about the Physical Actor Training A-Z. https://t.co/2JyljelQbr

'Acrobatics' is about working with others, having fun, and achieving things - learning what you can do when you apply yourself. In today's film, the trainees attempt some acrobatic moves together, including a classic 'Titanic' Lift! Watch the video here: https://t.co/ePH7SH9rn6

[Drama Online @dramaonlinelib]

Our PATAZ film for today is 'Zoning Out' - which sounds familiar this Friday afternoon! The trainees are challenged to avoid zoning out as they do a very slow walk. Would you be able to stay focused? Learn about the collection here: https://t.co/xdGp0MCByR

In 'Ethics', Paul and Frank discuss how a big part of physical actor training comes from simply finding the desire to do it. It's not just about the moments on stage - it's all about the preparation, the rehearsing, and the training. Learn more here: https://t.co/yD4Qn3y4Zx

[Drama Online @dramaonlinelib]

Don't hold back. Stay engaged, present and supportive. Bare feet are better. Don't be late! These are just some of the key points from today's video, 'Fundamentals'. So we want to know, what fundamentals do you follow in your acting? #theatre #acting https://t.co/pRmN0gOd80

Now we're all warmed up, lets meet the A-Z team! The Physical Actor training came out of a two-year project that captures the approaches of the trainers, Paul Allain and Frank Camilleri, and their 6 trainees as they work through the A-Z of Physical Acting. https://t.co/hR0frfn8Hz
