An invaluable tool for performers, Commedia dell’Arte is a deeply physical improvisational theatre technique that finds story by going deep into the heart of characters, where all the trouble is.

For over twenty years, Annie Ryan has evolved this rigourous and wildly fun training alongside hundreds of actors in Dublin into its own unique form, inviting fully embodied play with bravery, compassion and precision. 

Beginning each morning with a gentle yoga practice, Annie will move the group on to the floor, introducing the core principles of the style through ensemble-based improvisation games and progress toward exploration of characters and their worlds, what makes them and breaks them.


 “This unique style of actor training and development, coupled with the immersive worlds of pure storytelling that Corn Exchange explores in their work were vital to my own creative evolution.” 

Mark O’Halloran, actor and writer

 

 “This technique creates amazing space for play; where the actor is invited to work in a world with endless possibilities and vast imagination while maintaining deep focus and clarity. It is rare that one learns so much while workshopping with a company and I have found their fundamental principles applicable to all of my subsequent endeavours.” 

Louise White, theatre-maker and performer
