Mask work is the actor’s secret tool for developing concentration, imagination, observation, and inspiration. Neutral, grotesque, archetype, clown, character, and Balinese ceremonial masks are used in exercises to deepen the trust in inspiration and to open up archetypical energy in the service of creating character. Danish mask master, Per Brahe, uses Michael Chekhov technique in grounding exercises to support thinking, feeling, and “willing” and to enable the actor to handle a stronger imagination.
