We value technical expertise in music, singing, dance, performance and/or writing – but maybe more so, personality, willingness to risk and, especially, the primacy of imagination. Our professional aim is to develop the performer as a multi-faceted imaginative and committed artist.
Our performative take on image is based on quality of gesture : we see ‘making a gesture’ as the very soul of artistic enterprise. Gesture embodies ideas, sympathies, emotions, including when necessary, rage and outrage. It militates for inclusiveness and diversity.
In this sense, the program is OPEN TO ALL: it offers professional artists new challenges, inspiration for teachers and practitioners in other disciplines, as well as a creative context for anyone wishing to enrich their working tools, ideas and ethos.
