Physical theatre shows that you don't have to use words to express ideas. It uses techniques such as movement, mime, gesture and dance and can be used to explore complex social and cultural issues.
How can you be innovative in your use of Physical theatre? This clip shows the Physical theatre work that Complicite incorporated into its 2013 production of Lionboy, a piece based on the trilogy of best-selling books by Zizou Corder. Notice how the profile of the leading big cat is evoked by the bodies of three actors in striking shadow play (subtitles are available).
