a Solo Performance Workshop
November 10 – December 1
Langgam Headquarters
37C T. Bautista, AFPOVAI II, Western Bicutan, Taguig City
Calling on creative professionals, artists from different fields, and anyone interested to join our acting workshop series designed to enhance your creativity onstage and off.
The Personal Spectacle, set on November 10, 17, 24, and December 1, 2018, is geared specifically for solo performances. This module is ideal for actors, performance artists, Spoken Word artists, and those who work in the creative world.
The Personal Spectacle is more than a mere introduction and workshop to the art of solo performance. It is an experimental laboratory that enables participants to explore, define, and claim their individual performance style and narrative, without having to compromise critical aesthetic distance. Throughout the laboratory period, the participants are expected:
– To discuss the socio-cultural politics surrounding and hindering the solo performer from performing the self;
– To investigate into one’s personal creative process in performance;
– To challenge conventional standards in order to authenticate one’s individual aesthetic preference and style; and
– To devise performance pieces based on one’s intimate narratives or ideas.
The Personal Spectacle is designed for individuals who are seeking to explore and create independent solo work. At the same time, this laboratory can also be useful for those who are simply seeking to validate and strengthen their very own identity amidst the collaborative crop.
The P4,000.00 workshop fee includes four (4) Saturdays or sessions at four (4) hours per session for a grand total of 16 hours of learning, and a Certificate of Participation.
Ms. Jenny Logico-Cruz is the workshop facilitator.
