Walking: performance ruminations in ambulatory process
UVM Theatre and Dance Program presents –
Walking: performance ruminations in ambulatory process
An original UVM Theatre & Dance performance event created and directed by Theatre & Dance faculty Julian Barnett and Paul Besaw. The event explores ideas and experiences of “walking” – physically, intellectually, relationally, and more – and consists of three parts:
- Outdoor movement performance: an original site performance for the Royall Tyler Theatre patio, directed by Barnett. Features original/live music.
- Installation performance: two installations for the Royall Tyler Theatre lobbies, directed by Barnett and Besaw.
- Theatre performance: a poetic adaptation of Thomas Bernhard’s Walking. Directed by Besaw, this new theatre work features an adaption of Bernhard’s novella by Kathleen Gough and Paul Besaw, original/live music by Tom Cleary, and original film/projection design by Myles Jewell.
The third part of the presentation requires that a ticket be purchased for admittance to the Royall Tyler Theatre. Please note: This part of the presentation include a discussion of mental illness. Also, a strobe light effect will be used during the presentation of the theatre performance.
This production will be presented in the Royall Tyler Theatre and on the courtyard in front.
