The TEAM is a Brooklyn-based ensemble dedicated to creating new works that examine the American experience. Four-time Edinburgh Fringe First winners, the TEAM creates all of its work collaboratively through a process that includes physical and verbal improvisation, solo and group writing assignments, and character and movement compositions. Led by Artistic Director Rachel Chavkin, the Devising Within a Democracy workshop immerses participants in a mini devising process, providing tools for solo and group creation, working through delicate issues of collaboration and authorship, and the editing and synthesizing process. Devising Within a Democracy is aimed at both emerging and established artists.
