5 exercises for the voice + 5 more

Performance piece consisting of a sequence of live actions devised to exercise the ‘voice’ in its many material guises; for example, through verbal repetition, whispered utterance, hand-drawn line, projected shout and trumpet sound. Stage set consists of large roll of white paper front stage right and small table front middle-left with the following props: one clear pint glass of water; one small heap of salt crystals; one teaspoon; one eye dropper; stack of white notecards. The performance, engaging with the audience throughout at multiple scales of relationship, ultimately results in a large-scale drawing as both remnant and document. Presented as part of Image, Music, Text: A Turtle Event at Woburn Square Studios, hosted by the Slade School of Fine Art.
