Creation and Collaboration

The Actor as Creator This workshop will focus on the performer as a creator, with students creating a devised work at the end of each term. The first term will focus on a collaborative performance based on a specific social issue. The second term will conclude with a roving, site specific performance in which the audience will move through downtown Nelson and encounter performers as they travel. Throughout the year, each class will include exercises to promote physical awareness and cultivate connectivity between performers onstage, leading to a more present and available performance style. Focus will be placed on working as an ensemble, both in devising material and in performance. This will empower students to have a clarified presence on stage and to feel confident about discovering their artistic voice. There will also be a yearlong Shakespeare Monologue study and audition training, as well as solo projects and character studies. Enroll
