Improvisation and Intimacy Training: Creating a Consent Based Foundation for Improvised and Ensemble Work
How do we tune to the future of consent-based practices when the work we do is unscripted and unrehearsed? This interactive workshop will briefly share the basics of intimacy/consent training used in more traditional applications and performance (much of which is choreographed and rehearsed) then go beyond scripted work to adapt that consent based ideology to ensemble and improvisational groups when no one knows what will come next. Using techniques that build on the latest ideas that challenge more traditional power structures in performance, this workshop aims to empower participants with information and techniques that can make any ensemble that uses improvisation less awkward, more truthful and infused with trust and consent.
