Is Theatre Stealing Dance’s Moves? Panel discussion on the role of Movement Director image
Synopsis:

Join a distinguished panel of experts – Polly Bennett (Saltburn, Elvis, The Crown) Yukiko Masui (SAY, Romeo and Juliet, The Effect) and Shelley Maxwell (Get Up Stand Up, Shifters, Macbeth), for a discussion about the growing demand for the role of movement director in theatre.
 
Chaired by Shakespeare’s Globe CEO Stella Kanu, the panellists will delve into conversations around how movement direction differs from the role of choreographer, demystifying the process. We’ll talk about how movement direction has evolved in recent years and how it is more in demand than ever. We will also discuss how roles for movement directors have developed on film, television and commercial projects and what the future of choreography and movement direction might look like.
