/Lecoq (Jacques Lecoq)
Jacques Lecoq (1921 - 1999) was a French acting teacher and theorist who developed a method of physical theatre training based around the principles of le jeu (playfulness), complicité (togetherness) and disponsibilité (openness).
Working with mask and improvisation to simplify and then amplify the physicality of the actor, Lecoq’s work encourages actors to develop their own sense of play and discover new forms of creative expression.
