AFFECT THEATER DECEMBER 6TH 5-7PM

Dec 6th at 5 pm.

Our CEE Fellow Year-End Event "Affect Theatre" included a presentation followed by scenes  written and performed by graduate students in the Affect Theatre class, and lead by Cristiana Giordano and Greg Pierotti

How does an ethnographer remain affected by worlds encountered after leaving the field of research? How does a theater maker build theatrical worlds from empirical research that conveys not only story, but also affective experiences? Affect Theatre is a thinking and acting space for experimenting with these questions. During this lecture presentations students will present brief theatrical episodes which they will then explore and analyze with spectators in a group feedback process. CEE Fellows Cristiana Giordano and Greg Pierotti will give a talk laying out the practices and the theory underlying their collaborative experiment and methodology.
