In today’s progressive world of theatre and film, violence and fighting are becoming more and more common. At the same time, audiences are becoming more fight savvy, requiring more creative and innovative choreography to catch their attention. This has created a demand for more and more actors to learn how to fight, and fight well.
Knowing stage combat makes an actor more marketable than those who can’t fight. Stage combat experience allows a performer to be physically more versatile, from comedic trips and falls to Shakespearean sword fights to gritty scenes of torture and pain. Some of the greatest roles require fighting; Hamlet, Romeo, Cyrano, Joan of Arc, Buffy. If you have even the most rudimentary training in stage combat, you make yourself more marketable than those who don’t. Learning stage combat also allows an actor to be smarter about their own safety and to know the right questions to ask.
But learning stage combat isn’t limited to the actor. Directors would also benefit from having stage combat training. A director who is familiar with stage combat can better plan for what their production will need, and can communicate more fluently with the fight choreographer. Even simply knowing basic safety concerns and staging considerations will aid a director looking to stage a production with a fight in it.
