Mélanie Binette: Paths to Knowledge

How do the body, the imagination and memory interact with each other to build the spectator’s experience during a site-specific performance? How do we attend to the world in the context of reception? And how is it possible to evaluate experience, which can be singular and communal all at once? I would like to find some resonance to these questions during a discussion after the performance.

Mélanie Binette is an MA student in the Individualized Program, as well as director of a site-specific theatre company called Théâtre Nulle Part.
