Linda Wise and Enrique Pardo Give Weekend Workshop 12/11-12/13

Linda Wise and Enrique Pardo, directors of PANTHEATRE will be giving a weekend workshop in New York City on December 11, 12, and 13 (2009). This is an opportunity to discover their work, update your memories, and enter the inspiration and pleasure of one of today's greatest theatre laboratory.

The work : Voice Performance and Choreographic Theatre

Enrique Pardo pulls towards performance plots, with a quite unique take on the art of improvisation, which he defines as "imps at work". Linda Wise leans towards musicality and singing; the emotional drama of singing. Both teachers were part of the original Roy HArt Theatre and have surprising takes on this famous voice work.

The weekend theme : "Panic Plots"

A plot is both a place and a narrative and one of PANTHEATRE's main mottos: if you find your place you will find your voice. It means thinking more in terms of "where am I?" (Imagination) instead of "who am I?" (Identity). The imagination of place linked with the question of ‘placing your voice', especially in ensemble work. Panic, on the other hand, is the main manifestation of Great Pan - the Greek pastoral god after which Pantheatre is named. Panic makes you "go places".
