[NEohioPAL] Theatre Directing/Creation Class Taught by Raymond Bobgan

[Adrien Brizzolara]

THEATRE DIRECTING/CREATION CLASS
TAUGHT BY RAYMOND BOBGAN, CLEVELAND PUBLIC THEATRE (CPT) EXECUTIVE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
Deadline for application is May 14, 2018

CLASS DESCRIPTION
Theatre Directing/Creation Class is for theatre directors, writers, actors, designers, and composers who wish to explore the rigors of directing and creating original performances. In this class everyone will direct, act, and create. Participants may also be paired to collaborate on some assignments. The class will not follow a conventional curriculum and will evolve throughout the process. The class will include the creation of 3-4 scene assignments in order for participants to explore class topics and develop new work.

Director/Creator Raymond Bobgan's work centers on collaborating with performers to create performance. Deep work with actors on the creation of physical, mental, and emotional scores, montage of these scores with original text, layering of various elements, song creation, storytelling, and the moving of objects to transform space are all hallmarks of his unique approach to theatre. Raymond will also share techniques for engaging people in making and writing story.

Students may only miss one class and must make up work for that class. This is a working classroom environment and students will be expected to come to each class ready to dive in. Students must also be prepared to cast, create, and rehearse 3-4 scenes for in-class presentation. CPT space may be available to students for class work on a limited basis.

Students need to plan for 4-8 hours of rehearsal time for each scene. Scenes will be presented at the start of class on due dates.

The fee for the class is $750. CPT will accept up to ½ of this fee to be paid in "sweat-equity" volunteer work.
