Horse work for Performance artists
Southmowing Stables
Guilford, VT
September 12th, 2022
Ever wondered what horses and theater have in common? Join two theater artists and Centered Riding instructors - a school of horsemanship based in Alexander Technique, martial arts and physical therapy - for a workshop in horse work for performance artists. In collaboration with horses from Southmowing Stables, we'll explore parallels between horse and human communication and what these similarities can teach us on the stage and in daily life. The workshop will incorporate tools from natural horsemanship and equine therapy to explore centering, grounding, clarity of intent and nonverbal communication. We'll start with one group workshop this season, with the option to continue more in-depth individual lessons or group sessions in future summers.

INCUBATION OF NEW WORK
Faultline Ensemble values, supports and nurtures new artists, performers and writers. As an ensemble, we are dedicated to the process by which underrepresented communities recognize and begin to exercise creative power. Previous experience in theater is never a prerequisite for involvement in our projects, and we work hard to welcome and involve people who have never thought of themselves as artists. We regularly train performers, designers and stage managers, and our nonhierarchical creative process is always one of trading knowledge and teaching one another how to improve our process and work.
Faultline's commitment to its artists includes support in developing their own new works, regardless of past experience in the field. This support has taken the form of scriptwriting retreats, playwriting groups, and intentional recruitment and training of new performers and designers. As an ensemble, we learn alongside one another and from one another on each project, whether we are new to theater, new to community health, or experienced in both. Our commitment to nonhierarchical collaboration is the reason our productions are unique, effective and moving.
