Welcome! This is special event showcases the devised theatre developments created by students in the DEVISED THEATRE INITIATIVE. Prompt: "Entrance without Papers is Forbidden"
12:30 PM - 2:00 PMSat
Madison College - Studio Theatre A2031 (2nd floor of Truax)
Movement Educator, Co-Artistic Director of Imaginez
Director of Devised Theatre Program
Assisted by guest artist Genessee Spridco, the ensembles shaped their explorations in three six-hour workshops throughout the week in response to this year's prompt: "No Entrance Without Papers"
The process included each ensemble selecting sources of inspiration as "creative containers" for their work (examples: a photograph, a poem, a fictional or non-fictional short story, a memory, interviews, a question, etc.). From this, they created a performance vocabulary of movement, voice, visual image, sonic landscape, text and scenic environment to communicate their piece's style and aesthetic.
The work you will see demonstrates of the artistic power of creative collaboration. Enjoy!
