"Playing with Gender || Joyful Chaos " with Jude Regula & Roxy Schoenfeld
Join us for 90 minutes of gender exploration (f*ckery?) in the playspace, where there will be a mix of playing and us talking out of our gendered faces. This will NOT be us telling you what gender is (we don’t even know?!) – instead we will explore questions about how gender performs and is perceived in the playspace. What gendered expectations do we put on ourselves and others? Where do we feel stuck? Where do we feel free? As we playfully explore gender, let’s notice how that opens up (and closes off) opportunities for connection in DvT.
Following the workshop will be an experience of DvT play led by practitioners from the NYC DvT practitioner training program.
