One Month in Chicago

Last week was intense! We had a master class for a full week with the Tectonic Theater Company (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tectonic_Theater_Project) which was really really awesome and an awesome experience. We learned about theatrical elements, and how to incorporate that with text to make new theater. Really fun and I really enjoyed it.

Fend- Learned about joints, and how they work, and how to use them. (I know that my short reviews don't really tell too much about the class..but some of these classes are incredibly hard to explain). Today (Monday 10/1) We learned more about bones structure, how they feel. 

Acting- This week we finally start on monologue work! Excited to work.

Yoga- I'm really starting to enjoy this class..but 45 min into it..it is the bain of my existence.

Voice- Another hard class to explain..but today we started dropping actual words into our process..learning a lot about the breath.

Improv- Learning a ton about scene dynamics.

MFA workshop Aerial Day 2- Spanish Web

I loved this! It was incredibly fun, and although it took me a while I got most of the exercises/tricks/movements. annnnd I have photos!

Show I saw

I also saw DePauls Spring Awakening, and Chicagos longest running show "too much light makes the baby go blind. I'm sure you guys know about Spring Awakening, musical, edgy, great music. Too much light is sooo cool. Its basically 30 plays in 60 min, very fast paced, very funny, very...just fun! I really enjoyed it.
