CREATIVE PRACTICE LAB SERIES - FOR EDUCATORS & TEACHING ARTISTS
Come and be in community with like-minded teaching artists, activate your artistry, and come away with a toolkit to navigate the new curriculum so you can lead your students on an enriching creative journey.
Explore Anne Bogart and Tina Landau’s Viewpoints, Frantic Assembly Devising Techniques, and Ensemble Practices to create compelling physical and visual performance. Deepen your skills in physical expression, composition, and dramaturgical/choreographic techniques. We will also cover how to apply these techniques to an Individual Project with pre-existing text, and how to generate and integrate text into an ensemble setting.
