This workshop focuses on building physical character and finding source material, drawing from memory, physical explorations and writing exercises, we explore history to discover story and body to find character. We improvise as an ensemble to find the extraordinary within the ordinary. You learn techniques to create original material; expand your presence on-stage; and work with a group. Directors learn to communicate with performers about movement. Writers learn techniques for developing character, finding source material and improvising interactions. These exercises develop the capacity to stay in the moment and tune your perceptions. No prior experience needed.

The physical & emotional deep-sea divers of Deborah Slater Dance Theater return with Men Think They Are Better Than Grass Ð w-i-p #3. In response to the changing, reciprocal relationships between our lives and the environment, DSDT responds with the Catch 22's, humor, and hope we will need to love where we live.
