Testimonial
Program Description
Using storytelling, improvisation, and movement we will create new stories and scenes influenced by our own lives. Share your experiences through play and learn to craft a narrative with or without text. All levels welcome!
Hand2Mouth (H2M) is an organization that has committed to telling stories from new perspectives and vantage points that offer insight into the human condition; their work sheds light onto unearthed feelings and human emotions; and H2M creates original devised work driven by cultural narratives that are urgent and necessary to challenge and reconstruct who we are as a community.
H2M's educational program Student Voices welcomes students to embark on a narrative experience utilizing the tools that fostered their unique theatrical identity in Portland and beyond. Their storytelling tools will enable students to look beyond their known perspectives to investigate and tell the stories they hold inside.
H2M residencies most often draw from blending student research into historical, literary or cultural studies with details, opinions from their own life experience. Curricular content includes social issues, studies of history or political structures, classic mythology, history of science exploration or famous scientists, research into the 'big ideas' behind literature, music or art, etc.
This program may be done as a residency or a single session workshop.
