Frederick L'ecole des Arts in Arnaudville is hosting a class, taught by Steven Cooper (with the assistance of Nick Dooley), on unarmed stage combat. Stage Combat is an art form much like dance that creates the illusion of violence on stage while maintaining the safety of the combatants involved. In the unarmed workshop the students will be introduced to numerous techniques utilized in unarmed combat and will culminate the class by performing a short choreographed fight.
Steven is a recognized actor/ combatant with the Society of American Fight Directors. He has choreographed fights for a number of regional theatre companies across the country and has taught stage combat for Maine Shakespeare Festival’s Summer Conservatory, Alaska Theatre of Youth, and Summer Youth Shakespeare Ensemble. Some of the shows he has choreographed combat for include The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged, Othello, Macbeth, Gnostic Coincidence, and Life is a Dream. He has a degree in theatre from Northwestern State University. He currently teaches theatre with the Lafayette Parish Talent Program.
