Workshop: The Harold Lab
For Level 2+ students and the public with foundational experience
Available spots
Service Description
The Harold is the classic long-form structure for a reason: it trains everything at once. In this lab, you’ll learn how to weave character, environment, action, relationships, and patterns into a cohesive 3-beat show. You’ll get a clear roadmap for each section, plus practical reps on how to initiate, group game, and return to themes without forcing it. The aim is to make structure feel freeing, not restrictive, so you can play bolder while still building a satisfying show. You’ll work on: -The 3-beat framework: set-up, exploration, payoff -Pattern recognition and theme development -Editing, sweep moves, and transitions that keep momentum Accessibility in the space: The KW Atrium Studio is located next to the Woodwards Atrium space situated between the entrances of London Drugs and Nesters Market. The Atrium Studio is a 22’ X 30’ studio with glass walls, tons of natural light, high ceilings, and an accessible public washroom. The Studio has a sprung dance floor covered by a seamless dark grey Harlequin Cascade vinyl floor.
