INTRODUCING PHYSICAL THEATRE FORM: ACTION THEATRE with GUEST ARTIST DEANNA ANDERSON
The suite of exercises in Action Theater isolate the components of action – time, space, shape and energy — so that they can be examined, experienced, and altered in order to expand your expressive palette. Awareness and play are fundamental to the practice, as both are portals to spontaneous imagination.
In this workshop you will learn how to move your body and use your voice in new and enjoyable ways. This form is designed in a way that you will be uplifted and supported by your fellow players. Under the direction and encouragement of the workshop facilitator, you will be given the tools you need to play with abandon.
Your Action Theater improvisations may be poignant, hilarious, absurd, or poetic and dreamlike. The beautiful, ugly, raw, fragile, powerful, monstrous, funny and irreverent become entwined in wonderful and mysterious ways. Open to all, no experience necessary!
Please join us as we tumble Down the Rabbit Hole into a world of wonder, wildness and expression.
