課程內容:
關於角色塑造
在賈克樂寇表演體系中,肢體表現是重要的一部份。相對於一般認為所謂史坦尼表演法,認為表演是由內而外散發出來,賈克樂寇認為表演是由外而內。也就是說,一個角色的創造, 可以先由形體的摹仿與揣摩開始, 然後再由外而內, 慢慢建構角色的內在情感與精神狀態。
那麼, 要如何從外在進入到角色之中呢?賈克樂寇認為, 並不是要寫實的摹仿, 而是藉由對大自然、動物、物質等等動態的分析與摹仿, 進入到這些大自然的動態之中, 來試圖引發出一種情緒或是意象, 進而“創造“出一個戲劇人物。也就是說, 在這裡不是要講求“寫實性“的表演, 而是藉由模仿大自然的動態, 創造出一個“戲劇性“的角色。所以在這一次的工作坊當中, 我們將深入探討何謂“人類共通的詩意本質“(fonds poetique commun), 藉由對空間、光線、顏色、物質、聲音等 等物質現象, 產生感性的情感聯想, 接著, 我們再用肢體動作, 將這些無法言說的情感與動態, 用動作表現出來。藉由這樣的訓練, 我們可以慢慢進入到大自然萬物的動 態之中。比如, 風火水土、動物、物質…等等。用動態默劇(Mimodynamique)的方式, 將這些 元素用動作、方向、節奏、韻律等等表現出來。這裡我們要求的, 不是百分之百寫實的模仿, 而是用一種更詩意的方式, 將萬物的精髓與動態表現出來。
從動物的模仿出發, 我們可以慢慢進入到戲劇角色的塑造。從動物的動態引發出角色的走路與姿態, 進而讓人物個性的塑造更具立體感與戲劇感。
關於小丑
小丑是賈克樂寇學校兩年課程的最後一個單元。這也代表, 小丑所體現的, 是所有表演技巧之集大成。唯有真正俱有豐富經驗的表演者, 才有可能成為 好的小丑演員。
在這裡我們所只的小丑不是馬戲團或夜總會式的小丑, 而是以個性為主的戲劇式小丑。也就是說, 我們尋找的是以戲劇為表演形式的小丑。小丑表演的最終目的是讓人發笑, 但是如何讓觀眾發笑呢?就像賈克樂寇說的: “小丑只存在於扮演他的演員身上。我們全都是小丑,我們全都自認為英俊又瀟灑,聰明又強壯,但其實我們每一個人都有弱 點,都有各自愚蠢又可笑的地方;而當我們將它們表現出來時,觀眾就會發笑。“ 所以 , 戲劇式的小丑必須首先誠實的面對自己, 並且接受自己, 然後在舞台上放下一切的防備, 將自己的真實面貌呈現在觀眾面前。每一個演員都有屬於自己的小丑, 別人無法取代。而小丑表演最重要的是, 沒有一個小丑是要上台搞笑的, 他們的態度都是認真而嚴肅的, 他們的情感與表演也都是真實的。一個表演真實的小丑才會是好笑的。

賈克樂寇表演體系與 小丑示範講座
日期/時間: 2010 年 9 月 8 日(星期三)@ 7:30pm
演出地點: 仁生劇場
入場免費
內容:
賈克樂寇的表演體系是從中性面具開始, 小丑結束。
他曾經說過, 中性面具代表的是一個沒有個人性的群體, 我們要追求的, 是所有人類之間的共通性。而小丑卻恰恰相反; 小丑代表的是個人性發揮的極致, 每一個小丑都不同, 他所強調的是每個個體的內在狀態。賈 克樂寇的訓練, 就是一個從追尋人類共同詩意特質開始, 到挖掘每個個體之獨特性為結束。在這樣的旅程當中, 又經歷了哪些階段?
本次的示範講座, 將就這個主題, 作深入的探討。同時也將配合影片賞析與動作示範。
有關賈克.樂寇 ( Jacques Lecoq, 1921-1999) 當代最具啟發性的戲劇教師。二次大戰時期為運動員及物理治療師時,開始了對於身體結構與運動方式的研究。1948年前往意大利,擔任戲劇老師與劇場導演。 1952年他與朋友共同創立了位於米蘭的皮可羅劇團 (Piccolo Teatro)戲劇學校。1956年他回到巴黎,成立了著名的默劇與戲劇國際學校 (Eecole International de Mime et de Theatre)。賈克樂寇對於人類肢體語言之研究具有極大的興趣,但是他排斥僅局限於傳統啞劇與純粹模仿的狹義默劇。藉由意大利即興喜劇的啟發,他開發 出戲劇肢體的新的可能性並且不再將語言屏除在外,同時也發展出對個性小丑的研 究,以及面具的表演技巧,並於世界各地主要戲劇節主持戲劇研習營與工作坊。

Workshop Content:
In the performing system created by Jacques Lecoq, physical movement is one important element. As oppose to the Stanilavsky performing system that emphasize on the fact that performing is from in to out, Jacques Lecoq believes that performing is from out to in. The creation of one character starts from the creation and imitation of physical movement and appearance, and slowly moving from outer physical presentations to establishing the inner feeling and state of mind of the character.
How do we then enter the character? Jacques Lecoq thinks that an actor/actress need not imitate realistic character, but through analyzing the movement of nature, animals or materials, one will go into the movement of nature and try to initiate an emotion or metaphorical representations, and eventually creating a theatrical character. Jacques Lecoq does not emphasize on performing realistically, but to create a theatrical character through imitating the movement of nature.
Hence in this workshop, we will explore deeper what is the “common poetic essence of human being” (fonds poetique commun), creating sentimental imagination follow by using physical movement to present unspeakable feelings and movement, through space, light, color, materials sound and others material phenomena.Through these trainings, we will slowly moving into the movement of nature, for instance wind, land, water and fire, animals, materials etc. These elements will be presented by using the method of Mimodynamique, , through movement, sense of directions, rhythm and tempo. Here, we do not require fully realistic imitation, but to use a more poetic way to present the spirit and movement of exi sting nature.
We will slowly going into the creation of theatrical character by starting off with the imitation of animals. Through the movement of animals, we will be able to initiate the way of walking and body gesture of the character, hence creating a more solid and more theatrical character.
About Clown
Clown is the last chapter of the 2 years programme of the Jacques Lecoq school training. This also signifies that, clown is actually the combination of all performing skills. Only performer with rich performing experience can be a good clown performer. The clown we mean here is not clown that are seen in circus or night clubs, but theatrical clown that has a character. We are searching for clowns that utilize drama as a performing form. The aim of clown performance is to let people laugh, but how to make people laugh? Like what Jacques Lecoq once said, “ Clown only exist inside the body of the performer who performed . We are all clowns. We thought we are handsome and charming, smart and strong, but actually w e all have weaknesses and things that are stupid and dumb. And when we performed that all out, audiences will laugh“.。Hence, theatrical clown must confront himself/herself honestly, and acceptinghimself/herself. Then he/she can put down all the barriers on stage, and presenting the true self to audiences. Every performer has a clown of his/her own, no one can replace it. The most important thing of clown performance is that no clown wants to play fool on stage, they are all serious. Their feelings and performance are real, only a clown that perform the true self will make people laugh.

About Jacques Lecoq (1921-1999)
Jacques Lecoq was born in Paris on December 15, 1921. In 1937 he began studying physical education and sport which he taught from 1941 to 1945, gaining teaching diplomas from the French athletics and swimming federations. His interest in physical education brought him into contact with Jean-Marie Conty, a master of physical education and friend of Antonin Artaud and Jean-Louis Barrault. By 1945 Jacques Lecoq had started acting with Gabriel Cousin and the two founded a drama group. He was then taken on by Jean Dasté as part of a theatre company known as the "Comédiens de Grenoble", where he was put in charge of the physical training and body movements of his fellow actors. Here he discovered masks and was introduced to the ideas of Copeau, to the point of later identifying with him as his indirect heir.
In 1948 Jacques Lecoq went to Italy where he settled for eight years. He staged his first pantomimes at the university theatre in Padua, while in the city markets he discovered Commedia dell'Arte. He met the sculptor Amleto Sartori and together they embarked on research into masks, ultimately leading to joint projects including, inter alia, the "neutral mask". Invited by Giorgio Strehler and Paolo Grassi, he joined them for the launching of the school at the Piccolo Teatro in Milan. Later ventures included work as a director and choreographer, working together with figures such as Dario Fo, Franco Parenti, Luciano Berio and Anna Magnani, pursuing the quest for new movements suited to contemporary music, reviews, opera, and devising movements for choruses in Greek tragedy in Syracuse.
In 1956 he came back to Paris and opened his School of Mime and Theatre. At the same time he set up his own theatre company, worked at the T.N.P. (National Popular Theatre) with Jean Vilar, and also on television, but before long the school had expanded and he devoted all his efforts to teaching.
From 1968 to 1988, Jacques Lecoq was a teacher at the French school of fine arts (Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts) where he developed a teaching programme on architecture based on the human body, movement and the "dynamics of mime". In 1977 he founded the stage design department of the school, known as LEM (Laboratoire d'étude du mouvement — movement research laboratory). Jacques Lecoq was a member of the Union of Theatres of Europe, touring the world as guest teacher and speaker, giving master-classes and lectures, including the performance lecture entitled "Tout Bouge" [Everything Moves].
Permanent video records were made by Patrick Lecoq in 1983. In 1997 and 1998, Jacques Lecoq worked in close partnership with Jean-Gabriel Carasso, Jean-Claude Lallias and Jean-Noël Roy, ultimately producing the book "Le Corps Poétique" and producing two 45-minute documentaries for French television.
Only a few days before his death, on January 19, 1999, Jacques Lecoq was still teaching at the school.
