"Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth." - Oscar Wilde
Led by Juilliard Drama Alumn Richard Dent and native Jackson Hole musician Melissa Elliott, Music and Masks blends character creation, movement, and music in a week-long intensive workshop. Using handmade character masks, students will select a mask and create a character. Richard will guide students in movement and vocal techniques to bring the masks to life. Melissa will accompany actors by creating an underscore of music to enhance the magical realms they will explore. As students develop their character, Melissa will lead students in a songwriting course to create a theme song for their individual character and write a group song. The week will lead up to a cabaret style performance to showcase their character discoveries.
