Summer Creative Development- Washington DC

Filed under: Happenings

I’m looking for 2-4 creative companions, who are making work in physical theatre/dance/performance art  and want to indulge in a summer creative development to jam new work.

These sessions would be like a creative development for both your work and mine.  You bring something you are working on to share/ jam and also be ready to feedback and discuss the work of others. I love collaborating and know there are benefits of this even in solo work.

I am a performance artist working across movement and text. It’s not realism, it’s more about rhythm, aesthetics and storytelling. Ideally you’d be working in this territory also.

In February I ran Movement Lab which was an exploratory space for performers to work through a variety of stimulus for the creation of original movement scores.  I led a full day of exercises with nine people from different disciplines- dance, theatre,  movement and hybrid performance. We all found the process stimulating and worthwhile. So I hope some of you might be interested to come back and play again.

At Movement Lab I was exploring myself as a director, trying out new exercises with a group of performer/ creators. Now, I have the beginnings of a solo piece I’m developing and would love  to workshop it with other artists to get feedback and go deeper.

I am seeking shared leadership and can offer you my perspectives as a director and performer. The structure of our days and how we manage our time will be up to us. We could construct exercises for each other, ask questions, feedback, move together, reinterpret each others material, basically do what we do best… switch on our creative brains and dive in!

See my resume for more info about me and hit me up with an email introducing yourself and your work  if you are interested in coming out to play: k8alexandra@gmail.com
