RHIZOMATIC STUDIO: Collective Creation Lab
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.
