PLEASE POST The Artists Research Workshop The Irondale Ensemble Project announces a unique opportunity for artists to study Irondale's approach to developing new theatre works. For nearly a decade, the ensemble has been creating original, socialist oriented theatre works.This theatre has been dedicated to a critical analysis and artistic interpretation of the root causes of the social inequities present in contemporary Nova Scotia; to the refinement of an ensemble vocabulary through the exploration of theatrical forms with a permanent corps of artists; and to working popularly, advocating on behalf of culture as a vital social force separate and distinct from economic domination. Workshop Content Our next project is an adaptation of Henich Von Kleist's "Prince Frederich of Homburg", culminating in a studio workshop presentation in April. Participating artists will work under the direction of Irondale's Artistic Director, Choreographer and Designer through a development process that will explore: - collective writing techniques, game theatre strategies for rehearsal, game theatre solutions to acting problems, Irondale' multi-narrative approach to story telling; plot progression through integration of dance, movement, music and song; - political clowning; - political satire; - text analysis; - deconstruction techniques; - Brecht and estrangement techniques as an approch to modern audiences; - Marx and the theatre; - Theatre of the Oppressed techniques; - German Romanticism and the theatre; - and Nova Scotia's political history. Workshops will take place weekly (Tues.Weds.& Fri.) from February 1 - April 30 The fee for the workhop is Pay What You Can. Interested artists from any discipline should call 429-1370 to request an interview. -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- The preceding message was posted on Sustainable Maritimes (sust-mar) -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- A word from our technicians ...
