Shelley Lasica

The Design Plot

The Design Plot is an ongoing collaborative performance project, choreographed by Shelley Lasica, with the contributions of the six performers.

The Design Plot is a performance project that develops structures that bring together spatial mapping, systems of sensory awareness, construction as scenography and explores the potential for collective improvised decision making. The work unfolds through a methodology that includes open research sessions, performances, a video work, and the development of performance mechanisms through daily choreographic and physical practice.
