COLLECTIVE CREATION LAB:

TRY OUT NEW IDEAS AND WAYS OF WORKING

Monday nights, October 19 - November 23, 2015
$72 for the series
Advance registration required. No drop-ins. Email me to register.

A practice based, studio workshop for performers of all disciplines.

Participants take turns leading structures for generating new material and playing with old, new, or undeveloped ideas, in a safe, supportive, interdisciplinary cohort of peers. 

• The lab can be a place to play around, try out ideas, experiment with ways of working that are totally outside your wheel house, make BAD WORK in a fun, safe private space, etc etc etc. Or it can be the start of a new project.

• Structures might be borrowed from dance composition, devised or traditional theater, or performance art, and will be led by different members of the group each week. 

• Weekly themes might be something like: authorship vs. shared intellectual property; tableaux vivant; performing the architecture; plot and character-driven narratives; what is a performance score; improvisation as divine play; etc etc etc

• Participants can come from any performance-based discipline, and should be curious about trying out other ways of working.

• Each participant will be invited to facilitate (or co-facilitate) a session, but that is not a requirement.
