Choreographic workshop with Terrill Maguire
The 2 workshops will be devoted to the cultivation of creative content, through structured improvisations, that may – or may not- be used for the development of choreography.
The first will focus on delving into the inner landscape, excavating material from individual, personal sources.
The second will deal with discovering and generating material from external stimuli, via random chance procedures.
Both workshops will be accessible to experienced AND less experienced movers.
A notebook for optional note-taking and recording of discoveries would be helpful.
Otherwise, clothing that is comfortable to move in, and water for drinking, are all that will be needed.
