SUMMARY:Mahaiwe & NYTW Workshop’s Mind the Gap\, Intergenerational Performance Program / Mind the Gap\, programa de representación intergeneracional del New York Theatre Workshop
DESCRIPTION:New York Theatre Workshop’s Mind the Gap\, Intergenerational Performance Program/\nMind the Gap\, programa de representación intergeneracional del New York Theatre Workshop\n\nMonday\, June 23 – Friday\, June 27\n\n\n\n\n\nPublic performance on Friday\, June 27 at 7pm\n  \nAPPLY TO PROGRAM\nRESERVE TICKETS\n  \n\nMind the Gap is a free intergenerational theatre program in which youth [14-21] and elders [60+] interview each other and collectively create a performance piece inspired by each other’s life stories. Mind the Gap’s primary goal is to use theatre as a creative tool to increase empathy and communication between generations. The workshop will culminate with a public presentation in which the collaborative work is performed by the participants. No theatre experience is required to participate in the program.\n \nYouth stipends are $250 per person.\n \n\n\n\nProgram Goals\nThrough the workshop participants are able to: \n\nInvestigate\, listen and empathize with someone of another generation\, while using playwriting as a tool to understand and represent their unique experience\nBroaden their perspective\, see the other generation in a new light\, and take on the task of telling someone else’s story with respect and understanding\nShare their stories and ultimately see them interpreted through another’s eyes making meaning out of their personal narratives and gaining insights into their own lives\n\nImportant Criteria\n\n\n\n\nDesire to share\, listen and create – sharing your stories with someone of another generation and giving them permission to use your stories as inspiration for a play.\nDesire to bring your curiosity\, stories\, experiences\, creativity\, listening ears\, and willingness to share at every session.\nDesire to perform and act both individually as well as within an ensemble.\nDesire to collaborate generously and with an open mind.\nDesire and ability to attend every session. Since most of the work that we will do together will be in partner groups\, potential participants with fewer conflicts will be prioritized over those with more conflicts.\n\nThings to Remember\n\n\n\nIt is important to note that Mind the Gap is not an acting class; performance is merely the tool through which we mind the gap between generations.\nMind the Gap is not focused exclusively on the past. During the program participants explore the past\, present and the future. However\, Mind the Gap is not a documentary or verbatim theatre program. Intergenerational interviews are used as inspiration\, not as the sole material from which artistic content is created. Participants are treated as artists.\nMind the Gap is not a mentoring program. All participants are seen as equal in the process. We value everyone’s stories\, input and life experiences. At New York Theatre Workshop we believe that we always have something to learn from each other\, regardless of age.\nAlthough we encourage everyone to push past their comfort zones\, we do not demand that anyone share anything that they feel is too personal or too private. On that note\, if participants share something with their partner that they wish not to have shared or written about\, participants always have the right to ask their partner(s) to exclude any information from the artistic piece(s).\n\n\n\n\n\nLunes 23 de junio – Viernes 27 de junio\n\n\n\n\n\nFunción pública el viernes 27 de junio a las 19h.\n  \nAPLICAR AL PROGRAMA\nRESERVA DE ENTRADAS\n  \n\nMind the Gap es un programa gratuito de teatro intergeneracional en el que jóvenes [14-21] y mayores [60+] se entrevistan y crean colectivamente una pieza teatral inspirada en sus respectivas historias de vida. El objetivo principal de Mind the Gap es utilizar el teatro como herramienta creativa para fomentar la empatía y la comunicación intergeneracional. El taller culminará con una presentación pública donde los participantes interpretarán el trabajo colaborativo. No se requiere experiencia teatral para participar en el programa.\n \nLos estipendios para jóvenes son $ 250 por persona.\n \n\n\n\nObjetivos del programa\nA través del taller los participantes podrán: \n\nInvestigar\, escuchar y empatizar con alguien de otra generación\, mientras se utiliza la dramaturgia como herramienta para comprender y representar su experiencia única.\nAmpliar su perspectiva \, ver a la otra generación bajo una nueva luz y asumir la tarea de contar la historia de otra persona con respeto y comprensión.\nCompartir sus historias y\, en última instancia\, verlas interpretadas a través de los ojos de otros\, dando sentido a sus narrativas personales y adquiriendo conocimientos sobre sus propias vidas.\n\nCriterios importantes\n\n\n\n\nDeseo de compartir\, escuchar y crear: compartir tus historias con alguien de otra generación y darle permiso para usar tus historias como inspiración para una obra.\nDeseo aportar mi curiosidad\, historias\, experiencias\, creatividad\, oídos atentos y voluntad de compartir en cada sesión.\nDeseo de actuar y actuar tanto individualmente como en conjunto.\nDeseo de colaborar generosamente y con la mente abierta.\nDeseo y capacidad de asistir a todas las sesiones. Dado que la mayor parte del trabajo conjunto se realizará en grupos de compañeros\, se priorizará a los participantes con menos conflictos sobre aquellos con más.\n\nCosas para recordar\n\n\n\nEs importante destacar que Mind the Gap no es una clase de actuación; la actuación es simplemente la herramienta a través de la cual nos ocupamos de la brecha entre generaciones.\nMind the Gap no se centra exclusivamente en el pasado. Durante el programa\, los participantes exploran el pasado\, el presente y el futuro. Sin embargo\, Mind the Gap no es un programa documental ni de teatro literal. Las entrevistas intergeneracionales se utilizan como inspiración\, no como el único material para la creación de contenido artístico. Los participantes son tratados como artistas.\nMind the Gap no es un programa de mentoría. Todos los participantes son considerados iguales en el proceso. Valoramos las historias\, las aportaciones y las experiencias de vida de cada uno. En New York Theatre Workshop creemos que siempre tenemos algo que aprender unos de otros\, sin importar la edad.\nAunque animamos a todos a superar sus límites\, no exigimos que compartan nada que consideren demasiado personal o privado. En ese sentido\, si los participantes comparten algo con su pareja que no desean que se comparta o escriba\, siempre tienen derecho a pedirle a su(s) pareja(s) que excluya(n) cualquier información de la(s) obra(s) artística(s).
