Physical Theatre Perspectives
Physical Theatre Perspectives or PTP is a performance skills approach which negotiates moving and sound making in experimental and non-text-based performance genres. Emphasis is placed on naturalistic and abstract ways of being and partnering to carry forward story narration. Physical Theatre Perspectives through devised scene work unites vocal, theatrical, and movement techniques into one borderless expression which is practiced by Company SBB and that can apply to the current fields of performance art, immersive, and physical theatre standards in Europe and the United States. The engagement in this work will allow students to approach the company’s dance-theatre based repertory that will be performed at Bates Dance Festival, as well as other pieces within the company’s current touring repertory.
