Scott Jennings
former dancer with tanztheater wuppertal pina bausch
The playing body
The bulk of my work stems from my interest in bridging the gap between dance and theatre. I draw inspiration from dance makers and theatre directors, as well as from visual artists and circus performers. Working with games, scenarios and improvisations, my sessions are guided predominantly through tasks, questions and reflections. my foundational aim is to expand the way we relate, interact, and understand ourselves as human beings. I always encourage participants to tap into their own imaginations and use this as a stepping stone to unlock new ways of approaching physicality and creativity. the core themes of exploration for this workshop will include physical communication and storytelling, accessing and understanding the voice and working with objects and materials.
the description reflects an artist’s idea which was developed at the time it was submitted to b12. it may have changed by the time the workshop or the performance project is starting. please stay flexible. thank you!
