LIVING ROOM LOCAL with Christopher Bayes
WHEN: Sunday, February 21, 6pm MT
WHERE: Christopher Bayes’ living room (virtually). You'll receive a secure, one-click link to a private YouTube page after you purchase your ticket.
ABOUT THE EVENT: Director, performer, Professor in the Practice of Acting and Head of Physical Acting at the Yale School of Drama Christopher Bayes welcomes you into his living room (virtually) for a conversation on his creative process including his extensive experience in physical theater and comedy. Through his groundbreaking methodologies, a number of which he will discuss and demonstrate during this event, Bayes has guided thousands of award-winning performers and non-performers toward a more liberated, open expression. As Bayes has said, “I want to laugh more when I go to the theater. I want to be astonished by the logic of nonsense and by the blistering ferocity of passion expressed without worry and given away with complete and hilarious abandon. I love to see actors surprised by their talent.”
ABOUT OUR HOST: Christopher Bayes began his theater career with the internationally acclaimed Theatre de la Jeune Lune, where he worked for five years as an actor, director, composer, designer and artistic associate. In 1989, he joined the acting company of the Guthrie Theater where he appeared in over 20 productions. His roles included Caliban inThe Tempest, Edgar in King Lear, The Herald in Marat/Sade and Harlequin in Triumph of Love. In 1993, commissioned by the Guthrie Theater, he produced his one-man show This Ridiculous Dreaming based on Heinrich Boll’s novel The Clown. (read more)
