Imaginary Ensemble
The Imaginary Ensemble (ages 9-13) focuses on voice, movement, text, improvisation and performance for the stage. It develops the process of writing and creating, from trash puppetry to original one-acts and full-length adaptations. Through improvisation and classroom exercises the group creates original theatre and adapts classic stories and poems for the stage. Students learn to trust themselves and their collaborators, taking wild leaps into the unknown: their imaginations.

Past productions have included original adaptations of, The Wind in the Willows, The Arabian Nights, The Phantom Tollbooth and Hans Christian Andersen’s, The Snow Queen. The Imaginary Ensemble has performed Shakespeare’s, The Tempest, Garcia Lorca’s, The Billy Club Puppets, as well as group created shows based on Grimm’s Fairytales, Four Grimm’s Tales and Native American mythology, The Last Treaty.

The Imaginary Ensemble always welcomes new students. If you are interested in joining us you must have an interest in theatre and be willing to work hard and face challenges. A substantial time commitment is required for classes, rehearsals and performances. To join the Imaginary Ensemble, please call (707) 528-7554 or send email to: info@theimaginists.org
