BECAUSE WE ARE HERE & WE ARE REAL: A Workshop

BECAUSE WE ARE HERE & WE ARE REAL
Goddard College at Centrum, Port Townsend, Washington
February 29-March 7, 2008

Workshop Leader: Tiffany Lee Brown

Open creative doors, aid character development, help prepare for public appearances, and provide for unusual healing opportunities using techniques I've developed or ripped off from established theatre practices. Centered walks, psychophysical gestures, and relational moments with both objects and people will be featured. Source practices include eurythmy and Mikhail Chekhov Technique, in which I was certified at the University of California at Berkeley.

Who might want to participate?

- Artists who want their energy and creativity to flow freely
- Actors, dancers, and performers who want to improve their character work
- Writers who would like to expand their means of creating characters
- Writers who seek new tools for better visceral, "on the body" writing
- Anyone looking for helpful techniques of public presentation
- Anyone interested in using their own bodies for emotional self-healing
- Anyone who wants to tap into different parts of themselves, and allow those parts full expression

Please wear comfortable shoes and bring with you one small, sturdy object that feels significant for whatever reason moves you that day. We will do a gentle warmup with stretching and vocalizing, followed by indoor walking and discussion. This workshop is appropriate for all abilities, genders, etc. Sometimes, energy and movement work can bring up tough issues. If you have special physical or emotional concerns, please contact me before the workshop. Goddard students: I am on FirstClass under the name Tiffany.Brown .
