a2ru Webinar: Taking the Show Online: How We Teach the Performing Arts During COVID-19

Thursday, August 13, 2020 - 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM

This performing arts panel will explore practical approaches to accommodating camera-shy students in acting classes and possible strategies for creating studio-based engagement online. Panelists will discuss creative ways to interact with students via Zoom, online collaborative tools, and how to make-up for lost hands-on lab time. Specifically focusing on how COVID-19 is changing the way theatre is being produced, panelists will also discuss how instructors and students can adapt; how to make use of virtual space; and how we might modify physical space in order to have some in-person campus performances. This panel is designed to be informative and conversational. We encourage attendees to send questions to a2ru Program Coordinator, Charisse Willis, at a2ru-events@umich.edu prior to the event.
