a new Land Art piece & Live Art activation
October 3-November 3, 2020 
Across the South

Free and public

Using the platform of social movement, this project centers on choreography mapping that takes community service as a departure point. March On Variations! pays homage to the power of voter reform, or reform at all levels, by exploring the idea of Southern life into a mobile stage of intellectual human creative equity. This interstate bus initiative interweaves, with a public lens on care-taking, through on-site and digital interventions, asking how can artists create our own form of practice of radical equality and sharing, that is more just, more truthful.

This four-week online course is for anyone interested in learning more about their breath and developing an open, expressive, supported voice. Participants develop skills to build their own practice, unleashing a voice that is connected, powerful, and authentic.

Fitzmaurice Voicework® centres on four primary areas:
1. Destructuring through somatic exercises to release the body from tension and to find a breath that is the spontaneous and free allowing emotions to come forth with ease.
2. Restructuring the breath so that the voice is supported and the performance is authentic without injury.
3. Presence to develop a fluid internal and external awareness while channeling whatever is present in the moment.
4. Play to engage fully with a spirit of curiosity and openness with whatever presents itself.

Join us on October 29 at 4:00pm for a Stage Management Tech Talk!

At the helm of every smooth running show is a well equipped stage manager. You’ve heard them calling cues or reminding you to sign in at the callboard, but what else do stage managers do and why is it so important? Join us on Zoom as we clear up some of the mystery behind the stage management profession. During this talk, we will discuss the roles of a stage manager in a variety of settings, why stage management is vital to a production, what to look for when hiring a stage manager, and how to best communicate and interact with your stage manager. We will also provide samples of stage management paperwork and then open up the floor to a Q&A session.
