Connecting to the Audience with Dr. Lucky
New York's Dr. Lucky teaches at the Academy of Burlesque for 1 day only!
The most effective performers have a strong connection to the audience. Some would say that this is a natural trait that cannot be taught, but in this class you will learn exactly that. By connecting to others and then extending that to the stage, we will learn how to better connect to the audience. Through individual and group exercises, game playing, theatre improvisations, and clowning techniques this course will give you specific tools to connect to the audience and be in the moment. Open to all levels.
Saturday June 18th
5-6:30
$30 in advance, $35 at the door
Dr. Lucky is a seasoned performer, producer and educator. For more than a decade, she has carved a space for herself with her unique comedic timing and over-the-top theatricality. She has been hailed a "Burlesque Expert" by NY1 and Big Think and a "big, bad, bold drag queen" by Bust magazine. She has been featured on NPR (twice!), NY1, WNYC, Time.com, Metro (Baltimore), AMPM NY, Washington Post, The Toronto Star, and many others. She has headlined The New York Burlesque Festival, the Toronto Burlesque Festival (twice!), and the Key West Burlesque Festival. Though a huge fan of hyperbole, the prefix to her name is the one "real" thing about her: she is the world's first practicing burlesque performer with a PhD. She has been teaching Burlesque at New York University since 2005, and has taught at the New York School of Burlesque, the Burlesque Hall of Fame, CUNY, MICA, BurlyCon, Movement Research, and a host of others. She has presented papers on burlesque at numerous academic conferences and in 2007 she began the Burlesque Hall of Fame Oral History Project to document the stories of burlesque legends. Since 2008, she has been working with the legendary Dixie Evans on a book-length manuscript of her life.
