Theatrical Movement Workshop
Lead by Sharon B. Moore for physical artists who want to enhance their aesthetic movement and communication, these on your feet “theatrical workshops’ are designed to help fire up and align the moving body and emotional universe. You will be guided through a series of exercises that focus on letting your imagination run free through intensive subtext play while in motion, helping the mover tear down patterning in relation to movement choice, emotional range and text attack, resulting in lush new choices. The workshop aims to access a state of presence and freedom in which creative ability can be utilized and continually expanded upon. The contents of the workshops can be used as a warm-up process, for rehearsal, creation, performance, improvisation and for the building of character itself; specific or abstract. www.sharonmoore.org www.loveandwater.org

Sharon Moore creates as a choreographer, director and writer for dance, theatre, film and circus. While studying theatre at the age of 16, Sharon discovered dance and went on to graduate as a full scholarship student at The School of Toronto Dance Theatre. A former member of Contemporary Dancers of Canada under the direction of Tedd Robinson, she is a choreographer sought after for her highly textured and intensely magnetic theatre of movement. Flavoured by her understanding of theatre and her experience as an actor, her work has forged a unique approach to the creative process as it applies to dance movement. An avid creator, Sharon has generated over 120 original dance works as well as a body of full evening works, multi-lingual circus and numerous plays. Her training and creation methodologies have been cultivated through intensive experimentation, cross-pollinating many disciplines, art forms and with artists and cultures around the globe.
Sharon is a resident choreographer at The School of Toronto Dance Theatre and currently runs the movement curriculum at Humber College Theatre Performance Program. Recently, she held the position of Atelier Artist in residence and International Scholar at The Lewis Centre for the Performing Arts, Princeton University. Sharon is the first Canadian honoured with a Bessie Schönberg Choreographic Residency at The Yard on Martha’s Vineyard and is a recent recipient of the Kathryn B. Ash Choreographic Commission award.
Along-side Canadian composer/director Derek Aasland, she runs Cinetic Creations, a company dedicated to picture wide movement worlds for feature film, large scale original circus and spectacle. Their recent outdoor spectacle, The Thirst for Love and Water, presented by Panamania Live! in Toronto’s City Hall reflecting pool was viewed live by over 80,0000 people. Their works have received 9 Dora Mavor Moore nominations including a win for outstanding female performance.
