Subject and Object with David Gordezky

Open to all levels -

“Subject and Object aims to create a bridge between clown and puppeteer. The puppeteer is a body on stage that we often try to hide as much as possible, but what if we embraced their presence? Combining fundamental concepts of both Clown and Puppetry, students will learn to build a relationship with the audience and the object, as well as share the focus with their puppet, to tell new kinds of stories. Combining fundamentals of puppetry and clown, students will focus on creating a relationship between object and puppeteer, puppeteer and audience, and audience and object"
