TIME:10am-12pm
PRICE:FREE (Space is Limited)
At IRT:154 Christopher st. NYC #3B (third floor)
OUR VOICES is pleased to offer an introduction to the Viewpoints - a technique of training and improvisation that articulates the two dominant elements that performers and directors deal with on stage time and space. Viewpoints was created by modern dance artist Mary Overlie in the 1960s sixviewpoints.com and was developed for the theatre by renowned director Anne Bogart and the SITI Company siti.org. It is an incredibly influential force in contemporary theatre practice and making.
The workshop will be led by Founding Artistic Director Kim Weild and company member Alexandria Wailes.
