summer school.

quarantine, an english performance group, is accepting applications for its summer school:

>>We work with both experienced performers and people who have never performed before. Using their personal histories and experiences, we invent a theatrical form that’s tailored to each piece – from intimate encounters to epic events.

We often make theatre that blurs, exchanges or even removes the distinction between spectator and performer. Our past projects have included shared meals, family parties and a journey in the dark for one person at a time - as well as more conventional performances on stage, watched by audiences in seats.

Quarantine asks questions: about the world we live in, about who theatre is for – and who should make it. Because of its form, content and the people who engage with what we do, we see Quarantine's theatre as social action as well as artistic reflection.<<

there are currently 15 performers, ranging in age from teens to septagenarians, none of whom identify as "actors."

and if that doesn't float it for you, guillermo gomez-pena's Pocha Nostra is also taking applications for a summer workshop:

>>The prestigious Pocha worship is an amazing artistic and anthropological experiment in which artists from several countries and every imaginable artistic, ethnic and sub-cultural ackground begin to negotiate common groud. Performance ecomes the connetie tissue and lingua franca for our temporary community of rebel artists.<<
