In partnership with Bridge Street Theatre, CREATE IN PROCESS presents gatherings for performing artists to meet and collaborate on the creative process. These gatherings are free and open to the public. Attendees are not required to perform - come to meet fellow creatives, musicians, actors, dancers and performers.
OPEN PRACTICE offers a space for community members to perform in front of a live audience. Whether you are preparing for an audition or a show, you haven’t performed in a while, or maybe it’s your first time–come perform on a stage under the spotlight! All backgrounds, levels of experience, and forms of live performance are welcome. Each performer will have up to 4 minutes of stage time. Participants are encouraged to prepare a piece that you’ve been practicing and want to have a low stakes run through on stage to get performance-ready in the company of fellow local artists.
ACTIVE AUDIENCE is an opportunity to read, play or perform and get feedback from the audience. We invite participants to bring a new work – draft script, composition or choreography that is still in its early stages of development to share or perform. Each participant will have up to 4 minutes of stage time and performances of these works in process will be followed by a brief Q&A and opportunity for feedback from the audience. These sessions offer a great opportunity to workshop some ideas and prepare something for the next Open Practice.
