THEA 008 PO - Collective Creation
CrsNo THEA008 PO
When Offered: Offered alternate years; next offered fall 2013.
Instructor(s): T. Leabhart
Participants will create a collaborative performance scheduled for presentation at the end of the semester in Seaver Theatre as well as other locations on the five college campuses. Collaborators from all backgrounds and with all levels of previous experience are encouraged to join the project, which will call upon students’ abilities and interests in vocal and instrumental music, writing, movement, mask-making, painting, and sculpture. This class encourages participants to give voice and form to their own stories; their political activism; their dreams and visions; and their aspirations for themselves and their communities. In fall 2013, students will work with Professor Leabhart and with guest artist and director Karen Christopher (PO’85) to create a new performance entitled “Free as Air,” as part of the Mellon Elemental Arts Initiative. The performance will deal with contemporary issues of air quality/air pollution generally and in Southern California specifically, using perspectives derived from chemistry, aerodynamics (engineering), and sound production. Actors, movers, musicians, and all others, experienced or just interested, encouraged to participate. Performances in late November. Previously offered as THEA050.
