Stage Movement III

Catalog description

Year 1 Movement Discipline. The first year is geared toward observation, imagination and listening. The work centers around situations that demand giving over to the essential rhythms and desires of animals then creating characters that embody the physical and intellectual research. Mask work allows a person to explore their own inherent physical expressivity and develop methods of adapting that behavioral movement. We use a series of exercises specifically meant to demand a continuous full-body engagement in the work. The result is an improved awareness of habitual patterns in engaging with ensembles, partner(s), and text, a courageous physical engagement to meet any demand, and an expanded knowledge and curiosity about how to widen your palate of available actions.
