This workshop will guide participants through the use of rapid prototyping to co-create collaborative theatrical and interpretive pieces. The class will strengthen participants skills in creating stories through dance that are understandable to an audience, to expand the range of emotions expressed on stage, and to rapidly create a collaborative original piece. The workshop will culminate in the creation of a piece that will be performed the following day in support of the climate justice event Action to End Fossil Fuels in Old Sacramento on Sept 17, 11am (optional). The movement vocabulary will draw primarily from belly dance, contemporary and physical theatre.
