[Workshop]
This workshop explores how a “ready-made” or everyday object can transcend its role as a mere tool and transform into something that commands presence on stage—something that stirs the imagination and moves the heart.
Through a series of practical and experiential exercises, participants will deepen their relationship with objects on stage and learn how to convey sensations and emotions that go beyond the limits of the human body. The workshop also investigates how minimal means and modest budgets can still evoke poetic imagery, dramatic narratives, and even spectacular moments.
This immersive process touches on multiple disciplines—including puppetry, physical theater, stage composition, scenography, directing, acting, dramaturgy, animation, and visual arts.
We warmly invite stage artists, dancers, circus performers, puppeteers, actors, directors, dramaturgs, scenographers, and visual artists of all fields to take part in this magical world of object theater.

■ Eligibility:
- This workshop is open to artists and creatives—emerging or established—who are engaged in or interested in fields such as object theater, performing arts, visual arts, film, music, or literature.
