One Woman Show: Directing, Designing, Writing, Performing, and Self-Producing termiNATION.

Abstract

In this document is a full description and analysis of the creative and administrative process of directing, designing, writing, performing, and self-producing termiNATION, a one-woman dance theatre multimedia piece created under the NextLOOK Residency, a creative partnership between The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center’s Artist Partner Program and Joe’s Movement Emporium. Included in the documentation of the process is the original proposal, initial concept, discussion of how these concepts developed over the course of the rehearsal and production process, research images, photos from the pre-production process, and the final dress rehearsal. This production was performed at Joe’s Movement Emporium on November 17, 2017 in collaboration with Jeannette Christensen (Costumes and Assistant Direction), Dylan Uremovich (Lighting), Jeff Dorfman (Sound), and Jonathan Hsu (Choreography, Training, and Photography).
