Jerry Schwiebert, “Everything is Moving”
As thoroughly as they study their instruments or lines, top performing artists study how to use their bodies to heighten the audience's experience of their art. This lecture-demonstration takes you "behind the scenes" to learn some of the basics of body movement for performing artists. Audience volunteers will join the instructor onstage for body manipulation, partner with other audience members in exercises, view themselves on live video, and participate in entire-audience explorations. Taught by Jerry Schweibert, faculty in movement in U-M's School of Music, Theatre & Dance, and author of the forthcoming book, Everything Is Moving.
