Dive In Workshop Series: STAGE COMBAT
Saturday, December 19th | 12PM-3PM
The Newmarket Rec Center
Instructor: Cari Keebaugh

What do The Odyssey, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Star Wars all have in common?

Great theatrical violence (among other things). The fight scenes are riveting, heart-pounding dramas that showcase the characters’ strengths, weaknesses, fears, and heart.

But what actually makes good theatrical violence *good*? This workshop will give participants hands-on experience with performing stage combat safely while in character, not just as an actor. Come learn the fundamentals of stage combat, like how to punch giants and kick supervillains, and how to safely and effectively carry character choices through to a fight designer’s choreography.

Cari Keebaugh is a SAFD-certified Actor Combatant and local Violence Designer who loves to help actors tell stories, from silly to serious and everything in between, through the art of choreographed violence. Swords and slaps, pratfalls and punches, she loves it all! Most recently, she created the stage combat for “Blood & Water” (Breaking Light Productions), “A King and No King” (Theatre@First), “Verona Falls” (Footlight Club), and “Macbeth” (Dream Role Players). Follow her adventures at http://www.VeryCari.com!

** PLEASE NOTE: No previous experience required. Participants should bring comfy clothes that you can move in. **

We wrapped up HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH and would be remiss to not give a HUGE THANK YOU to all who made this show happen: Our performers, our band, our directors, designers & crew, and the Millspace: Center for Art, History & Culture leadership and volunteers. "Thank you 💖" to the wonderful friends & fans of Dive In making it out to the theater and taking a chance of a rock show filled with so much raw energy & emotion. We felt the love.

Y'all are shinin' ....like the brightest stars. 💫
