PUTNEY â Sandglass Theater is expanding its Summer Intensive Training to include both in-person and virtual participation.
âThis approach to our training integrates zoomers and roomers in a shared space where live training and collaboration can happen, for all participants whether co-located or entering the room through a computer,â Sandglass Theater directors wrote in a recent announcement.
The training offers a fundamental introduction to Sandglass Theaterâs approach to Puppet Theater. Daily classes include breath training, puppet technique and performance classes and composition classes. No previous experience is required. Sandglass is offering two full scholarships for BIPOC students.
The Sandglass Summer Intensive will take place July 11 through 24 at Sandglass Theater in Putney. In-person students are required to have proof of being fully vaccinated for COVID-19 prior to gathering on site. The 60-seat theater is housed in a restored barn from the early part of the 20th century, and includes a fully accessible lobby, with ramp for wheelchair access.
