What do you have to say?"
No.1 from 'Questions
This, Here, Now is a collection of text invitations for improvisation performance and practice, written and compiled by artist, composer, and improviser Henry McPherson.
Conceived for use by musicians, dancers, actors, performance-makers, theatre-makers, composers, choreographers, poets, artists, and any others working in the performing arts (and beyond), these texts are offered as stimuli for practical work in the studio, on the stage, and in the rehearsal space.
They can be approached as scores or structures, research questions, discussion points, reflective tools, provocations, experiments, meditations, poems, or in any other way that practitioners might find useful and stimulating.
