Summer Arts in Santa Fe - Action Theater Training with Ruth Zaporah August 10th, 2011
Ruth is offering an introduction to her improvisation physical theater practice, Action Theater, to the Santa Fe Community College. Through action the practitioner learns about the present moment, how to be HERE, unveiling themselves to themselves, one moment at a time, one moment leading to the next. Ruth’s exercises, physical, vocal and verbal, invite the practitioner into unknown yet uncannily familiar territories, territories of the embodied imagination.

By examining awareness, play, relationship, stillness and silence, actions become enlightened, become fresh. The capacity for feeling is strengthened as are the roots and tools of expression. Participants experience fresh views of themselves, who they are, how they perceive and respond to the ordinary and how vast is their potential. The conceptual mind that insists on defining content learns to share with more spontaneous embodied and imaginative resources. The lights turn on exposing every moment as a splendid moment. This workshop is for the novice as well as the experienced; all those who relish living in a human body and like to move.
Action Theater – ASF 376 01/CRN 10647 – $175 course fee, No refunds after July 27.
