Burlexplorations: Defining Your Inheritance with Sinner Saint Burlesque
Join Sinner Saint Burlesque for a 4 week performance art intensive in which you will learn new ways to discover, confront, and express the stories that yearn to be told from just beneath your skin.
"I invite you to unravel with me; to tease apart of threads of time, culture, history, bloodlines, and earthly possessions. To peel back skin and muscle and bone; to identify the things you've inherited and name who and where those things came from; all the while asking yourself, 'Who am I'?" -Mother Time, Inheritance: Maiden, Mother, Crone
In the theatrical production "Inheritance: Maiden, Mother Crone", Sinner Saint Burlesque uses performance art to examine the external forces that create who we are today. Some forces we celebrate and strengthen our gratitude for. Some we challenge and change on stage before the audience's very eyes, creating a new legacy for ourselves, women, and humankind.
This four week intensive introduces participants to Sinner Saint's method of using burlesque, theatre, ritual, and drama therapy as a means of personal growth and self-empowerment.
Over four weeks you will:
- Reflect on and explore the personal narratives that inform your life and your art.
- Develop a 2 minute performance piece that represents the shift of those narratives you want to see. This can be used for your personal growth and as a seed for future acts, shows, or art projects.
- Experiment with exercises meant to bring meaning and new levels of understanding of your stories and legacy through movement. Expand and deepen your movement vocabulary. Increase your connection to your body. Embody your values in visceral new ways.
- For performers, practice distilling complex ideas and universal truths into refined stage-ready movement.
- Receive personalized live-action coaching. Practice giving, receiving and integrating peer-to-peer feedback in the moment.
- BONUS! Receive a 30 minute private follow-up coaching session.
This class is for brave humans of any age, race, class, gender, performance background (or lack thereof). This session is appropriate for anyone interested in creating performance art with meaning, healing through dramatic action, or using stripping as a means for personal growth and self empowerment. We do ask that all participants keep an open mind and a loving heart as we create a safe space to explore personal stories and try bold new things. No drop-ins. Must register for entire series.
