Learning to Emote

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2005)

Years ago the beloved Lourens Snyman addressed The Youth Theatre Foundation on the subject of projecting emotions on stage. He advised us all to get down to the local airport and spend a few hours enjoying the emotions of all the people there. What fantastic advise it was too. I love it when I get an excuse to pop to the airport and like to get there just a little too early so that I can feel all the emotions rolling over me like a love roller coaster. If you are an emotional fridge you need to watch this movie and then get down to your nearest airport. Focus your attention on one person and try to feel everything that person is feeling, try and guess by the look on their face whether they are meeting a business partner, lover, family member or just a friend, and then wait with them until the person they are awaiting arrives. Have fun!! Fantastic movie, spot on.
