Pan NYC Hosts 3rd Voice Performance & Choreographic Theatre Workshop
The Third Annual Voice Performance & Choreographic Theatre Workshop
May 20th-29th 2011
Nettles Artists Collective is once again proud to bring to New York, Enrique Pardo and Linda Wise, founders and directors of Pantheatre based in Paris and at Malérargues (The Roy Hart Centre, Southern France). With extensive work in the European scene, these two directors will incorporate moments of ensemble and individual work on all aspects of the performer's craft, including voice, text, singing, acting, expression, emotion, movement and music.
Voice Performance, taught by Linda Wise, involves dynamic blend of technical finesse and expressive risk in extended voice ranges (including Roy Hart Techniques). The training will develop vocal improvisation, text renderings and dramatic musical compositions.
Choreographic Theatre, taught by Enrique Pardo, integrates voice performance and text into movement ensemble work. The training includes chorus composition disciplines, the deconstruction of texts and disassociation exercises. How to free the voice while "setting up" the texts and the actors.
Pantheatre defines its aims in terms of "the affirmation of personal genius - character and musicality - and a commitment to what one has to voice, be it in speech, song, scream, silence, image or movement, or their synthesis in choreographic theatre".
This work is for an "advance/professional" level - not necessarily in terms of technical proficiency or even performance experience, but rather in terms of personality and capacity to take risks (both psychological and professional).
