Mark your calendars: The final Sixth Act workshop of 2004-2005 is fast approaching!
The workshop, entitled "Stagecraft 101: Understanding the Fundamentals of Design," will take place Tuesday, April 12, from 4-5:30, in the Black Box Theater (Building 4), and will guide participants through the process of staging Tennessee Williams' short, evocative play Talk to Me Like the Rain And Let Me Listen.... By the workshop's end, participants will have gained insight into the language of scenic, sound, lighting, costume, and property design, in turn gaining insight into practical as well as metaphoric applications of stagecraft.
As always, refreshments will be served! Also, participants will have the special opportunity to engage with designer/director team Larry Mandelker (VaPA), Jeffery Jones (ENG/PHL), and Maria Brandt (ENG/PHL), and to enjoy the dramatic performances of Matt Fox (TRS) and Regina Fabbro (ENG/PHL). All faculty, staff, students, and community members are welcome.
The Sixth Act is a new drama initiative sponsored by the English/Philosophy, Visual and Performing Arts, and Transitional Studies Departments at Monroe Community College. It provides a collaborative forum for individuals interested in the stage to explore botht he production and the study of dramatic texts. Please direct any queries to Maria Brandt at 585-292-3394 or mbrandt@monroecc.edu.
