A weekly drop-in workshop series for performance makers inspired by the Six Viewpoints theory and practice.
Originated by choreographer Mary Overlie, the Six Viewpoints is a study that establishes and expands the base of performance by inquiring into the vocabulary of the basic materials that are found in the creation of all art: space, shape, time, emotion, movement and story.
This is a space for us to rediscover and explore the materials and practice working within horizontal hierarchies.
These sessions are for theatre, dance and performance artists of all disciplines, including directors, designers, dramaturgs, stage managers and technicians - all welcome.
No movement experience is necessary.
Please wear comfortable clothes and footwear you can move in.
