    October 23, 2023  7:30 am - October 28, 2023  3:30 pm | Budapest, Hungary

    SITI Company Inc.’s Viewpoints and Composition Workshop
    Training, Practice & Making with Ellen Lauren and Will Bond

    Description

    Ellen Lauren and Will Bond return to the Ladder Company to offer a week-long all day intensive experience based upon the physical and creative practices they innovated with SITI Company over 30 years of collaboration and productivity. The work includes rigorous physical training, somatic practices, and creative problem-solving. The work is based upon the discoveries of pioneering theater makers Tadashi Suzuki, Anne Bogart, Mary Overlie, and Wendell Beavers, along with our own SITI Company colleagues. Whereas this work is situated from the point of view of theater makers, it is valuable to performers and makers of all forms and traditions. The sources of the materials come from investigations and practices in visual art making, music, choreography, contemplative dance practice, somatic movement practice, and composition theory. The language of the workshop is English.
