The Neutral Mask Workshop with Mike Lion
February 18 - March 4, 2025
This three‑session workshop, taught by Mike Lion, introduced actors to the Neutral Mask - a powerful training tool that helped performers strip away excess expression and let the body become the primary vessel of storytelling. Participants developed stronger physical awareness, deepened their ability to stay present in the moment, and practiced directing focus onstage. Although centered on mask work, the training proved valuable for actors of all styles, encouraging a heightened sense of discovery and an openness to “mistakes” that made performances feel vividly alive.
