Quick and Dirty Creation and
Performance Workshop
August 12–16, 2008
Join Molly Shanahan and 8-10 advanced movers for five days/25 hours of intensive creation, culminating in an informal performance at Links Hall on Saturday, August 16th.
Shanahan directs and choreographs an original work, created through compositional modalities that emphasize the participant's unique voice, honor Shanahan's current movement research and core values, and engage questions of presence, ensemble communication and establishing viable creative containers for appropriate risk and individual development into new territory.
Participants must be advanced contemporary movers with a curiosity for delving into a short--but deeply satisfying--week-long adventure.
Interested movers should email Molly Shanahan directly at mollymadshak@aol.com with the following information: age, dance experience or training (100 words), interest in the workshop (100 words) and a confirmation of availability.
Location: Berger Park Cultural Center--6205 N. Sheridan Road, Chicago, IL and Links Hall, 3435 N. Sheffield Ave., Chicago, IL.
