Peter James\u2019s Workshop on Presence, Focus and Availability cross-references techniques from theatre, dance, clown, and performance. This contamination brings about an awareness of relevant codes and paradigms in contemporary performing arts. It is not about acting as much as presence, or even meta-presence, as we combine energies, textures, rhythms, and tensions in order to reveal intermediate states of emotions, meanings, and expressions. Listening and presence are refined through guided improvisations and the situations they produce. This process also serves as a self-unmasking for those who partake in it. It\u2019s not about character, or acting, as much as about ourselves in the present moment on stage, in a show or in improvisation. Working by questioning presence, on stage and off, we ask what \u2018realness\u2019 and \u2018authenticity\u2019 can mean. Is it to be without social masks, without acting, without theatrical tics and conventions? Within this underlying tension between representation and simply being oneself, we undertake a rigorous exploration of our limits, revealing what our self-perceptions and personal mythologies blur.<\/span><\/p>\n

An interdisciplinary intergenerational live art maker, <\/span>Peter James <\/b>works with dance, theatre, performance, circus while blurring boundaries and confusing performance and representation codes as much as possible. He has been doing this for thirty years in France, Belgium, Toronto and Qu\u00e9bec. He is a playwright, art director, performer and artistic coach for his own projects and for other artists including Nicolas Cantin, Manuel Roque, Dana Michel and St\u00e9phane Gladyzewski. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n
