Frédérick Gravel

Creation Workshop


The workshop will focus on elements of Frédérick's current research. His work focuses on presence, play, musicality and the notion of attention. What do we pay attention to when we dance? Expect to work on directed solo and duo impros, and group scores. A little more attention will be paid to duo work: how to communicate well, make the unexpected happen and use it to give rhythm to the performance.


Objectives:

  • Work on becoming aware of certain automatisms.
  • Accept our patterns and seek to transcend them.
  • Work on awareness of the intentions, energy and balance of your duet partners.
  • Work on not tying everything together, knowing how to stop and punctuate.
  • Work on writing and dramaturgy in live performance mode.

→ An open workshop will take place on Friday October 20 at 12pm.

Dates :

October 16 to 20, 2023
