Karen Christopher is a collaborative performance maker and teacher, interested in artistic negotiation in the making process and finding non-traditional structures for working and composing material for live performance.
Through a series of assignments or tasks, workshop participants will be invited to explore and create in a space where creativity, activity and invention are themselves imagined as productive states. Group collaboration strategies will be employed to inspire individual breakthroughs. Performance is a mode of thought. Each time we make a live performance work we go through a learning process.
No prior performance experience is required, and a mix of abilities and interests is welcome. Curiosity around ideas of creativity and how to work with others is desired.
The 3-hour workshop will generate material which will be performed by the workshop participants at the event Entanglements: Studies in Falling, Flowing, Following on Thursday 7 November at 6pm. Attendance at both times is required – arrival time on Thursday TBC. Karen’s new ensemble project will also be presented at the event alongside the work of the Waterways Collective, Hannah Lavery (Edinburgh Makar) and Rhubaba Choir.
