KEYNOTE
"Devising
Performance
In and Out of the Classroom"
Keynote Michael Rohd opened the K-12 Institute with a look at collaboratively created original theatre work with young
people with the possible the intent of learning a subject, developing civic responsibility or creating a production.
Through collaboration, a collision of ideas and responses results in a performance utilizing naturalistic and poetic
techniques useful in educational and community environments. After discussing his process and several projects, he will
led participants through a brief devising experience.
Special nationally recognized workshop leaders included Michael Rohd, Daniel Stein
as well as leaders from American Alliance for Theatre and Education, Southeast Center for Education
