Park and Katie Cofield
Co-Directors/Instructors
An old man ponders his existence on the bank of a purple river. He is accompanied by a young girl who leads him along the water.
This ninety minute performance was the culmination of 3 months of collaborative theater exercises. Propositions for the performance, including text, song, images, were provided entirely by the students. Rod puppets and shadow puppets were incorporated, as well as physical and vocal scores—or repeatable choreographies and patterns for the body and voice.
