Shake Shook Shaken: Antidote
@ Elastic Arts
3429 W Diversey Ave, #208, Chicago IL, 60647
Opening Saturday, November 11th, at 12PM
Shake Shook Shaken is a monthly theater/movement workshop series produced by Julie Meckler. The series is designed for people to gently bring body awareness, allowing participants to open up, explore outside of their comfort zone, bond with each other, create and show.
Shake Shook Shaken is a dream of what a safe space could allow. A vision of a place for everybody to gather, look at each other, play and create in a non judgmental, trauma-informed way. It’s an invitation, a journey within and out, a surprise. Each workshop is unique. This month we’ll have special guest Hope Arthur leading with the topic ANTIDOTE.
No prior dance or acting experience is necessary, just willingness to move and exhale. This workshop series is for anyone and everyone.
