Robert Lepage: MIT Student Workshop, Spring 2012

Multidisciplinary Performance and Media Artist Robert Lepage
2012 Recipient of 
the Eugene McDermott Award in the Arts at MIT
The Performance and Design Practicum provides MIT students the opportunity to work with the internationally acclaimed multidisciplinary performance and media artist Robert Lepage on a creative project over several months. The project will be launched on Sunday, February 12th, when members of the class will participate in a workshop devoted to exploring the creative process through the theme of playing cards with Lepage. The initial workshop with Lepage is focused on the development of a performance piece, but students may choose to develop installations, computer games, works of music or nearly any other creative project. Students will present these projects for feedback from Lepage and continued development on Tuesday, April 24 during the class period when he returns to campus for the 2012 Eugene McDermott Award and residency.
