In Tandem Arts has partnered with Shelburne Museum to host an unforgettable summer experience: Epoch Generation. Epoch is a dynamic space to experiment with storytelling and performance. Over the course of 2 weeks, we’ll co-create a site-specific performance on the museum grounds. An ambitious, intensive workshop for teens, Epoch is a team environment for research and experimentation. The journey begins with exploring the surrounding sites and areas of interest specific to the group. Using these findings as “source material”, the process is a challenge to translate our visions into reality by producing an original show. Epoch is a place to explore our shared history and learn something deeper about ourselves… but most importantly, HAVE FUN DOING IT!
