Star Wars Mask Work: The Episode Between Episodes
Dave & Elora pull on the Star Wars masks to discover how the actors bring the franchise’s most beloved characters to life! Inspired by our conversation with Charles Stuart Ross, creator of ONE MAN STAR WARS, we explore the physicality of portraying characters from that galaxy far, far away! Darth Vader, Chewbacca, C-3PO, Boba Fett, and so many more, all of these characters have the same thing in common, you barely ever see them with their masks off. Yet their performances all express emotion, bringing the characters to life. Compelled by Charles’ insights into the choreography of his one-man show, we delve into the masked characters of the Star Wars universe. Discover the challenges and artistry of portraying iconic characters behind the masks, drawing parallels to the masked work in theater and film.
