with 5 Nationally Renowned Performing Artists
- Peter Sparling (former principal dancer with The Martha Graham Company)
- Claire Porter (critically acclaimed solo artist)
- Jane Shockley (former dancer with Zenon Repertory Company)
- John Giffin (former principal dancer with the Wuppertal Dance Theater company under the direction of the late Pina Bausch)
- and CORNINGWORKS director, Beth Corning
The workshop is open to anyone 14 to 140 years of age interested in exploring dancetheater techniques. NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY. However, participants must be comfortable moving and improvising physically and verbally.
In this intensive workshop, participants will rotate through five 30-minute periods working with each individual guest artist. Each 30-minute session will explore different aspects of dancetheater – each guest artist bringing his or her own mastery to the class. The workshop will look at the ways movement and sound, text and non-verbal expression intersect and resonate, how music and silence create worlds of universal poignancy and often times humor. The final 30-minute session will involve the participants in the first-hand experience of creating and performing an improvisational dancetheater work.
