Today we began introducing the ViewPoints method of actor training. It's a difficult and involved process, but for today it largely involved walking around in circles and learning to say "spatial relationships". (The VP are utilized by the SITI Co. from New York.)
The training serves two main purposes.
1) Building an ensemble.
2) Increasing the body's flexibility and fluidity.
We will return to this work again and again as a way of learning to work together and a way of creating parts of our performance.
