Visiting Artist at Central School of Speech & Drama

Scarlett is visiting dance artist on several BA and MA courses at Central between October-December 2009. The sessions, organised by Scenography and Performance Arts lecturer Simon Donger, aim to introduce students to the language of dance, movement analysis and the potential of the body as a tool in devising performance, with strong reference to the processes of Butoh. Scarlett's involvement includes:

• A solo performance for the 3rd year BA Design students to create a speculative design for, with follow-up discussions assessing their response to choreography.
• Two dance workshops for the 2nd year BA Performance Art students as part of a term-long interdisciplinary project which involves puppetry, film animation and sound artists.
• A dance workshop for the MA students in Theatre Practice, exploring the idea of self-portrait and the use of materials and spatial elements.

AUTUMN WORKSHOP Saturday 24th October, The Place, London

CONTEMPORARY DANCE AUTUMN WORKSHOP - OPEN LEVEL

Saturday 24th October 1pm-3.30pm

Founders Studio, The Place, 17 Duke's Road, London WC1H 9PY

£15

Briefly back in London from touring, Scarlett offers this workshop to all keen on extra practice this autumn, from beginners to advanced. Contemporary dance uses natural body alignment, core strength, weight and flow to develop greater range and freedom of movement. Scarlett integrates elements of Graham, Cunningham, Limón and Release techniques, with reference to Yoga and Pilates in the warm-up. The session will build up to encourage use of dynamics and space, and quality of expression in longer combinations - set to the usual eclectic mix of music! Not suitable for complete beginners.

*Weekly class continues at Danceworks every Saturday 3.30-4.30pm with Tine Kluth until November 2009*
