One Day Intensive Workshop with award-winning Theatre Artist Kari Margolis Workshop - Presentation - Take a Theatrical Journey to Your Creative Core! This one-day workshop will allow students to experience the Margolis Method's dynamic process of tapping into an actor's creative state. Using a laboratory format, students experience creating theater on their feet, connecting the voice to muscular conditions and dramaturgically shaping visceral impulse. The skill-sets of actor, director and playwright are merged to develop a powerful three dimensional theatre artist. Kari Margolis' research and theatre productions have been recognized with six National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships, a "Bessie" NY Performance Award, a Per/TCG National Artist Fellowship, a Creative Capital National Artist Fellowship, a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowships and multiple McKnight Foundation Fellowships among many other prestigious awards. Kari is co-artistic director with Tony Brown of the critically acclaimed MB ADAPTORS Company. She leads residencies internationally, has been the master teacher for the Kennedy Center for the Arts American College Theatre Festival for twelve years, is a published author and Keynote Speaker and runs the Margolis Method Center International in Highland Lake NY. Presentation of Work-in-Progress from the MB ADAPTORS newest production PULLING STRINGS: Margolis Brown ADAPTORS Company has, since 1984, toured sixteen original productions nationally and abroad, The Company's work merges a dynamic actor physicality with text, song, video and the unusual use of everyday objects. This is a rare opportunity to take a sneak look behind the scenes and experience how the Company creates work and be the first to see work-in-progress from their newest production. PULLING STRINGS ponders the question "who really is in control of our dreams, thoughts and ultimately our actions" Brought to life in the manner of a bizarre human puppet theatre PULLING STRINGS' haunting dreamscape collides time, iconographic storybook imagery and cultures to create a wry and twisted modern fairy tale. |

MASTER CLASS WITH MIZU DESIERTO Pricing: $45 ($40.00 for students and friends of Vangeline Theater) Pre registration is necessary, space is limited. Description: BODIES OF WATER: This exploration of inner and outer environment through butoh imagery and contemplative dance awareness will begin from a microscopic look at the role of water in our bodies--traveling through cells, tissues, organs & saliva--eventually becoming larger bodies of water--ocean, river, tide. The workshop is a means of creating an experiential landscape to research the essence of our nature, through both internal and external landscapes of fluidity. Mizu is the co-founder and Artistic Director of Portland's Water in the Desert and The Headwaters Theatre. She is a performer, choreographer and educator whose work explores themes of personal truth, ecological sensitivity and transformation.

YOGA |

Tanzasana Yoga Date/Time: Tuesdays at 6:00-8:00pm ABOUT THE CLASS...Tanzasana Yoga offers Vinyasa Yoga, where focus is not only placed on proper alignment, but on breath-synchronized movement, as one flows smoothly and powerfully from one pose to another. Historically, yoga asanas (postures) were created with the intention upon completion of a series, to be more comfortable sitting in meditation. All of the expansions and contractions of the body were for the sole purpose of being comfortable in stillness. That being said, yoga is a beautiful and necessary counter-pose to both sitting at a desk, and an athletic lifestyle. Aiding in both the prevention and treatment of anything from chronic pain to the common cold, yoga leads you down the path to a more satisfied you. Whether you are looking to deepen your practice, get in shape, or simply lead a more abundant & receptive life, Tanzasana Yoga can be a catalyst on the journey. More info at www.tanzasana.org |

SUPA 2011: Festival for Choreographers |
|
|
(All workshops are from 10am to 4pm Mon-Fri) SUPA 2011 is looking for rigorous and sophisticated choreographers who are also interested in teaching and its relationship to making; choreographers invested in communicating via teaching the breadth and depth of choreographic thought and the relevance of the knowledge it engenders to other fields and subjects. This festival of workshops gives them an entire week to work with a limited amount of students (max 14) via composition, repertory, mentoring, or any combination of practices they feel useful. It is our hope that these workshops will result in a give and take of knowledge and practice that is rigorous, personal, intense, and intensely pleasurable. Workshops Week 2: August 1- 5 Week 3: August 8 - 12 General Information & Registration For information, contact Susan Rethorst at s.rethorst@gmail.com |
