Forsythe Repertory Hypothetical Stream and Die Befragung des Robert Scott
lot’s of fun through the rigour of the process

Toward accessing an experience in Forsythe's dance approach we will explore phrases of movement and modalities from Forsythe's works "Hypothetical Stream" and "Die Befragung des Robert Scott". In this exploration of Forsythe's work we'll intergrate movement and forms ranging from classical to contemporary and release, and a bit of improvisation - a signature of Forsythe's work.
