A
event
held at The Island
on Sunday 29th June. The event starts at 09:00.
Practitioners in performance-making, movers, dancers and actors, the workshop is an opportunity to develop your movement and vocal improvisational skills to create movement, imagery, and text for performance. The focus will be on an embodied approach to creating imagery derived from our production, ‘Goat Song’, which takes the idea of the 'eeriness of place' to explore mythologies of place and to create new mythologies about the world in which we live.
This workshop will delve into the process of performing improvisational scores and developing interactions through movement, storytelling and imagery. Through prompts you will deepen your creative response and ability to generate ideas through an emergent process. The work fosters a playful, and open approach to exploring dynamics, interconnections, and impulses that arise from the individual within the ensemble. Our work is inclusive and diverse, fostering a supportive environment for creativity to thrive.
Mary Steadman, Artistic Director of Dust Ensemble.with over 30 years of experience devising, performing, and teaching workshops nationally and internationally, will be leading this workshop with Xavier De Santos, who has extensive experience in dance and physical theatre, performer with Dust Ensemble and Artistic Director of AllouAqui Dance Theatre.
