About this Event

Doors at 11:45 AM
Workshop begins at 12:00PM

In an interdisciplinary approach to creating dance, this workshop guides participants into creating a personal vocabulary by taking theatrical tools as points of departure. We will respond—and not interpret—to visual and literary stimuli to generate new movements and understand how to edit them in the process of creating a repeatable psychophysical score. If there is time, we will experiment with connecting the participants’ scores to spoken text and/or sound
