masterclasses

“Great mix of history and performance experiences. Demystified the artform”
- Drama Victoria

“Rosa worked with my Yr 12 Theatre Studies students and the skills she taught them in ‘play slapping’, tumbling, character development and heightened expressive skills really aided their exploration of role. Could not recommend her more highly! ”
- Caulfield Grammar School

“The best workshop and my students always love it”
- Leibler Yavneh College

“I loved it. A great introduction to Commedia”
- Fairhills Secondary College

“Deconstructing the ‘traditional’ Commedia dell’Arte paradigm is essential to broadening access and inclusivity. Rosa has shown that Commedia, without erasing its own cultural history, can be owned by everyone and used to respect and celebrate that difference; reclamation instead of cancellation”
- Malthouse Education Coordinator

“Students of all disciplines including makers, technicians, designers, stage managers and actors joined Rosa for an embodied experience that felt incredibly dynamic. She covered principles including mimodynamic movement, archetypal character relationships, and character movement patterns as well as mask. Her charismatic delivery and selection of exercises had students wholeheartedly committing their attention to the session”
- National Institute of Dramatic Art

- Drama Queensland

“The participants were thoroughly engaged and the response was overwhelmingly positive”
