SUMMARY:New York Theatre Workshop's Mind the Gap
DESCRIPTION:Workshop: Monday\, August 3 through Friday August 7\nRESERVE FOR PERFORMANCE–APPLY TO WORKSHOP \nNew York Theatre Workshop’s Mind the Gap returns to the Mahaiwe this summer\, August 3-7. The intergenerational workshop will take place in the Indigo Room all week long\, culminating in a free public performance in that space on Friday\, August 7 at 7pm.  \nMind the Gap is a weeklong performance workshop that brings together youth and elders to explore identity\, legacy\, and empathy through storytelling and theatre-making. Participants work in intergenerational pairs and as a full ensemble to develop original performance pieces based on their lived experiences. The program culminates in a final invited sharing where participants perform their collaboratively devised work.  \nTo apply\, visit mahaiwe.org/applymtg. Applications are open through June 22 at 5 p.m. Youth participants are supported through $250 stipends.   \nMind the Gap is facilitated by New York Theatre Workshop (NYTW). NYTW Teaching Artists Noor Hamdi and Psacoya Guinn will lead this year’s workshop.   \nNoor Hamdi \nNoor Hamdi is a New York based actor\, teacher\, and writer. He’s performed on Broadway (Skin of Our Teeth\, directed by Lileana Blain-Cruz)\, Off-Broadway (including Cartography\, directed by Kaneza Schaal)\, regionally\, and internationally\, as well as in various short films (including Sherman\, directed by Darine Hotait) and TV. Noor is always happy to popularize queer and SWANA narratives\, and especially the intersection of the two\, and is currently performing his solo show 2014. They’re also a clown\, circus artist\, polyglot\, gamer\, and eternal academic.   \nPsacoya Guinn \nPsacoya Guinn is the Director of Education and Community Engagement at NYTW. She is dedicated to cultivating inclusive spaces that amplify diverse voices and spark dialogue across differences. As the facilitator of Mind the Gap\, Psacoya brings a thoughtful\, community-centered approach grounded in empathy\, active listening\, and the power of storytelling. When she is not at NYTW\, she enjoys all things Shakespeare and Peloton.  \nNew York Theatre Workshop is a community of artists and audience members who believe in the transformative power of theatre. For 40 years\, NYTW has cultivated a space where our common humanity is affirmed—where audiences are both challenged and delighted by the daring vision of our artists.  \nMind the Gap at the Indigo Room is made possible by the Mahaiwe’s Performing Arts Education Sponsors: Adams Community Savings Bank\, Beacon Bank Foundation\, Berkshire Money Management\, Bulkley Richardson\, Golub/Price Chopper/Market 32 Foundation\, Lee Bank Foundation\, and NBT Bank.
