Bill Bowers: Master Class & It Goes Without Saying
For one afternoon only, teen and adult students will learn from Broadway performer and international mime sensation Bill Bowers.
Class begins at 1pm and includes 2.5 hours of training. Perfect for all levels of experience.
Bill Bowers holds an MFA from Rutgers University, Mason Gross School of the Arts, and an Honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from Rocky Mountain College (where he received his undergraduate degree). He has presented master classes, residencies and performances for both students and educators in settings such as Harvard, Princeton, New York University, UCLA, and numerous other professional actor training programs. And now, he's available at The Schoolhouse.
Students who are attending the evening performance of It Goes Without Saying can stay at The Schoolhouse for a relaxing afternoon. Bring your favorite scenes to workshop and rehearse with other participants and Schoolhouse staff in a relaxed, fun atmosphere. Drinks will be provided, and there will be time for a dinner break.
It Goes Without Saying begins at 7:30pm.
"Brilliant writing, a profound theme, riveting stories, and Bowers' warm, winsome personality." BACKSTAGE
"Bill Bowers is a real theatre artist. Working with the simplest of tools, he creates a world of poetry, meaning and deep emotion. IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING entertains, for sure, but it enriches as well." Terrence McNally, Playwright
"He makes you laugh and cry and think, all in one swoop. Maybe he's really an angel." Anna Deavere Smith, Actress, Playwright
If you missed Bill's previous performances at The Schoolhouse, you missed a lot! Luckily, he's back!
Compared to the work of David Sedaris, Claudia Shear and Augustin Burroughs, IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING is a uniquely crafted autobiographical tour-de-force in which Bill shares funny, heartbreaking, and unbelievable true stories from his career as an actor and mime,and his life-long exploration of the role silence plays in all our lives.
IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING takes you on a scenic tour of Bill's life thus far; from his childhood in the wilds of Montana, to outrageous jobs as a performer across the country, to the whirlwind of Broadway and studying with the legendary Marcel Marceau.
