Steven Berkoff /physical theatre

I first came across this man when I was in year ten. (i just finished homework on him and felt the need to write about him).

When I was in year ten and my first drama lesson, our teacher sat us down and said: "Who knows who Steven Berkoff is?" Of course none of us did at the time but later on, I realized he would influence my work more than I imagined.

So I talk a lot about the performance I got about six awards for and made an audience scream. I used  a lot of physical theater within it and did a fourth wall break by going up to the audience. So I feel as if I am influenced by this man and his work.

I also realised I use a lot of the physical theatre within my script and when writing directions. I am very contemporary. So maybe I should g into this than acting? Hm. I will see.

Anyhow, his work is brilliant and everyone- you know I am just going to show off some his work cause I want to do this myself one day.

 just general of physical theatre

 Now this is Steven Berkoff physical theatre.

I just find it so cool how the body can be used instead of speech and can be used to show an audience a specific emotion.

Please don't say I am the only one who thinks this.
