Viewpoints Weekend Intensive
Feb 18-19, 2017
Saturday: 11 AM - 3 PM
Sunday: 11 AM - 3 PM
Instructor: Dana Marks
Location: Cardinal Gibbons High School, Raleigh
Join actor/director DANA MARKS for a physical, two-day intensive exploring Viewpoints Basics and how we can use them to create new work, or as a way to inflate our attention on stage and in life.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: We are going to explore the messages and meaning we put forth to the world/audiences by working with the physical body in time and space. Our bodies will be the material, time and space will be the place. We are going to exercise our impulses and learn to listen and express ourselves in a deeper way through group exercises and structured improvisations.
Our goal is to become more impulsive actors: to make meaning in a different kind of way.
Using Viewpoints, we will begin to find a physical freedom so that we can find impulsive freedom in performance and daily life. The Viewpoints (adopted and adapted by theatre artists Anne Bogart & Tina Landau) are nine elements of time and space. Those nine elements will be explored onstage through group exercises that include structured improvisations and the creation of short, original theatrical compositions all in an effort to deepen the theatrical experience.
