1st elements: the building blocks of rhythm theater
Monday, June 13th, 6:30-9:30
Using scenes from the play 1st elements (who shot miguelito?) participants will explore three separate "layers" of performance - text, rhythm, rhyme. The three-hour workshop will include basic rhythm exercises to develop focus, free play and imagination, an exploration of coro, solo and duo scenes from the play, and ultimately the opportunity to create short, original rap and rhythm theater pieces.
