FV 125: (Part 2) Drama company The French Loop with Natacha
Description
Natacha is a young Frenchwoman qui “a la patate” and a contagious passion for improvised play. She’s the founder, coach, and one of the improvisers / actresses of The French Loop, a theatre company based in Melbourne. (If you also live in the area and would love to practice your French and have a go, Natacha welcomes non native speakers too, hint hint!).
In this second episode, Natacha is presenting the French Loop : who can attend ? From what age? We’ll also talk about a not so well-known aspect of improvisation called social theatre / Shake Theatre. You’ll see that this activity can be a fantastic, therapeutic tool. Finally, I love Natacha’s message: everything is possible, don’t take life too seriously!
