STORY THEATER INTENSIVE 2011 with Carol Bleackley Sills   July 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 10 workshops: 25 hours Arrival date: July 17 .   Story Theater is a form evolved by Paul Sills that allows the transformation of stories or literature into onstage contemporary performance. The curriculum of this intensive was created by Paul and Carol Sills in a workshop they conducted with professionals in Los Angeles in 2008. In ten workshops over a five day period, the intensive includes the group adaptation of stories during a rehearsal process that leads to performance. The approach emphasizes communication, both verbal and nonverbal, through the playing of Spolin theater games. This experience, while spontaneously involving all members of the group, can transfer to other curriculum areas, bringing delight and satisfaction back into rehearsals and learning. Actors, theater students, teachers, directors and other players are welcome to attend.
