Performances
Join Cornell University’s Department of Performing and Media Arts for Eco-Performance: Harnessing Dynamic Communication Skills to Meet the Times on Tuesday, November 18, 5:15 pm-7:00 pm in Fernow Hall G24 (226 Mann Dr, Ithaca, NY).
This event will be an interdisciplinary convergence between the Department of Performing & Media Arts, Department of Environment & Sustainability, and Ecology House as part of the Climate Change Theatre Action network’s ongoing project ‘The Time is Now.’
This workshop – focused on channeling dynamic communication skills into eco-infused theatre adaptations – will begin with student project presentations:
- Laila Pines for the Wolf by Hassan Abdulrazzak
- Brackendale by Elaine Ávila
- Macbeth by William Shakespeare
Intertwining the stories of humans and other creatures, these works frame the urgency of the climate crisis as a shared interspecies call to action. Following the presentations, Theo Black (PMA professor, E&S guest instructor, and EcoHouse fellow at Cornell University) will guide attendees through skill-building exercises in dynamic communication – tools that can be applied across any field of study.
All are Welcome and Encouraged to Attend!
