CORNINGWORKS Dance/Theater Workshop
SUN May 1 at The New Hazlett Theater
11 am to 1:30 pm
ONE-DAY INTENSIVE WORKSHOP
with 5 Nationally Renowned Performing Artists
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.
