Articulating the thought is the considerable challenge in communication.

Communication is a complex process in which we simultaneously observe and perceive the messages that come to us, and respond based on our interpretation of such messages, and therein lay the challenges of meaning getting distorted and hence the opportunities of making our communication more clear, effective and impactful.

How we communicate also defines how the world sees us and hence responds to us, and the power to change that lies with the individual. Communication is expression. Communication is comprehension. Communication is feedback.

Communication is Complex! During 48Hours: Talk The Talking, we help participants explore and develop this potential.

With theatre as a tool, this programme will cater to the emotional and creative needs of individuals. The experience of working together and creating a piece of art is the major takeaway along with learning the lessons on building expressions, public performance, communication skills, empathy and team work, to name a few.

The residential programme will run on October 4-5-6, 2019 at Atelier, Ghitorni.

There will be 16 participants in all.
