Action Theater Ensemble
USA

An ever shifting and living, physical tableaux born in the moment. The landscape is created by the actors mutual agreement to believe in whatever reveals itself, second by second, on stage.
The Action Theater Ensemble includes, in this present incarnation, Heather Lundy, Heather Harpham, Linda Rodeck & Cassie Terman. All are long time teachers and performers of the physical theater improvisation form, Action Theater. By combining the kinesthetic possibilities of dance with the emotive and communicative nature of acting, Action Theater seeks to bring alive, on stage, the deepest and most resonant human states. Informed by meditative states of mind, Action Theater invites performers to quiet the chatter of the mind by bringing heightened awareness to the sensations of the physical body. This keen somatic awareness acts as a magnifier for states of being; seemingly small or insignificant sensations such as slowed breath, tension in a shoulder, or slightly buckled knees, gradually emerge into conditions of humanity that consume our attention and radiate to the audience as unique and palpable.
