with Geoff Norris

In the autumn of 1924 Rudolf Steiner gave a course on Speech and Drama that was intended for professional actors. Rudolf Steiner places an important statement in the introduction to this course ‘What is important above all else is a thorough knowledge of the organism of speech, of the living structure of speech as such. This organism of speech has been produced, has come forth, out of man himself in the course of his evolution.’ Geoff will offer us an overview of the course and insights into how we can all put these into practice when we speak and listen – particularly when participating in the high social art of human conversation.

Geoff is a master teacher of Steiner Creative Speech with over 45 years of experience in the field. He is an experienced storyteller, actor and director and has performed and given workshops world-wide. He is currently training students to achieve a Goetheanum recognized siploma in Steiner Speech and has been speaking and codirecting for Eurythmy West Midlands young stage group.
