About Viewpoints: Acting Through Movement

Taught by Reese Pasquarello

This course focuses on the practice of Viewpoints, a training founded by Anne Bogart and Tina Landau that highlights a performer's instincts and relationship to their fellow ensemble members through movement. This is an introductory course where performers can unlock a new part of their skills as a performer through the use of Viewpoints movement exercises. This course will culminate in a final showcase, where the ensemble will share their new skills through a display of Viewpoints exercises. No prior experience needed.
