I create an environment in which my students and I act as collaborating artists, each with their own expertise and authority via their own experiences, identities, affiliations, and modes of expression. My project-based workshops and courses teach skills through direct application, offering students practical performance tools with clear direction on how these tools can be further developed within and beyond the classroom. https://www.graceboothperformance.com/teaching/commedia-dellarte-workshop-series monthly 0.5 2021-05-05 https://www.graceboothperformance.com/home daily 1.0 2020-05-16 https://www.graceboothperformance.com/about daily 0.75 2023-11-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/1635631235015-HYEEBZTOFS3V9HPVIAS7/Grace+Booth+headshot+1+MB.jpeg About - BIO Grace Booth is a physical theatre performer, playwright, and teacher based in New Orleans, LA.

Edna is eighteen months pregnant and holding that baby inside her until they reach safety. Vinnie is convinced that even the apocalypse can’t obliterate Las Vegas, so that’s where they’re headed. “…this perfect duo craft moments of gut-busting hilarity, deeply tragic pathos, and spectacular acrobatics. They’ve got great comedic chops and tremendous characters that reveal a vulnerable human edge.” ~Audience Review Created by Juliana Frick and Grace Booth as Hungry Bird Theater Performed at FuryFactory Festival 2014 and SF Fringe Festival 2015 Winner of SF Best of Fringe and Sold Out Awards. https://www.graceboothperformance.com/projects/happyland monthly 0.5 2021-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/a4f3fd60-0e37-4d6d-a864-ad4f991f92d6/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8241%2B%281%29.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/4c318922-a556-4c1a-91f6-041c8824db02/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8274.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/e8862a97-6511-4327-b0e5-fcc133cb2cef/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8201%2B%282%29.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/c3f5c156-522c-4afc-8e8c-298cfc6d5ea1/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8207.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/8e07c31c-8ac3-42df-83ee-a6c3fb28461f/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8241.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/25210d86-0681-474f-a4cb-6c4643d989f0/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8255.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/e065a078-d680-4d6c-8425-20a1c5f9baef/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8357%2B%282%29.jpg Projects - Happyland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/2d0f23d6-f98c-4bda-991e-6bca6d1cc397/DELLARTE.THESIS.PHOTOS.DSC_8380.jpg Projects - Happyland https://www.graceboothperformance.com/projects/the-electric-monk-show monthly 0.5 2023-06-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/3dc447aa-71cb-4a93-a318-739b549db737/IMG_1612.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/f8b681cb-c86b-4ccf-8cb8-095a6a8591ed/_DSC9555.JPG Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/176c4b0b-ff67-4aee-82c6-657dd37fbd8e/Screenshot+2023-06-06+at+3.44.42+PM.png Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/baf71ee0-4475-4160-b351-a12b5191d803/221D88A4-768C-4F68-A51A-87CAF472DE7B_1_105_c.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/8406e017-61a2-4f70-85b9-4cea3cb8dd9d/D53B7223-E10A-4F76-A86D-5F333C7D999A_1_105_c.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/7168c9fc-01e1-4553-9d3e-05301df32664/1B555F4D-28A8-4171-82C1-50933CE65B3A_1_105_c.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/476af6d9-027e-4231-8feb-307a57d84200/8D7A46C8-A3C6-409C-B716-BBF29931A76E_1_105_c.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/200016da-1471-4317-95b4-ff805f075d72/B2E28561-0763-47A4-BE6F-7568728C7B93_1_105_c.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/a9b1b08f-42b1-47e0-b4c1-20b8512433b4/B5118F82-990E-4D67-A88E-05256F1541CD_1_201_a.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/5ed97fb1-3ac5-4571-9f32-b1a3d42c6f96/EMS+Berlin+1+-+1+%281%29.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/9143394a-b423-45a0-a8f9-0f0d4c7c6975/EMS+Berlin+1+-+1.jpeg Projects - The Electric Monk Show https://www.graceboothperformance.com/projects/agathaapple monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e70fa000f57f207de942732/1637618678286-T6VVCJQU4GF8Q47BF1RU/Agatha+Apple+-+Halifax+Fringe-54.jpg Projects - Agatha Apple - AGATHA APPLE; A DARKLY HUMOROUS EARTH POEM What if the earth were a human being?
