CONCRETE - Immersive Theatre Intensive
Housed on the campus of Montclair State University, CONCRETE is a three-week intensive that explores the hyphenated genre of dance-physical theatre and how these techniques function inside kinesthetic awareness in immersive theatre settings. This proximity research recognizes and interrogates the cultural biases housed inside of nearness and the relationship between spectator and performer.
This three-week intensive facilitates career development and connects professional and pre-professional dance artists to current directors and makers inside the US and international physical and immersive theatre scenes.
Transformative, rigorous, and challenging, CONCRETE is meant for professionals and college students 18 years and older. It includes exposure to clowning, partnering, ensemble-devising, voice in movement, material/prop approaches, performer perception in physical space, and interrogating the cultural biases housed inside proximity-based performance. The culmination of the three weeks will apex with a fully immersive production that ensures a ten to twenty performer/spectator ratio. Tuition includes tickets to see two theatrical experiences from Emursive Productions.
