Movement for Performance
Open—Year
This is a movement class for anyone interested in performance; no movement experience is necessary. All that is required is an open, curious mind when approaching the work. Daily warmups and improvisation lead to moving in larger ranges and creating original movement. Later in the semester, we will explore the integration of text and movement composition for the theatre. As a requirement of the class, there will be unique opportunities to observe rehearsals and/or performances of Mr. Neumann’s professional engagements in New York City. This class meets twice a week.
