About Viewpoints
Technique
The Viewpoints is a system of exploration and improvisation that focuses on the performer’s relationship to time and space in performance.
Originally developed in the 1970s by dancer and choreographer Mary Overlie, this approach was designed to investigate how performers create and embody their work.
Later, Anne Bogart and Tina Landau adapted and expanded Overlie’s Viewpoints to suit actors, providing a powerful tool for acting, directing, and ensemble creation.
At its core, Viewpoints is about spontaneous, intuitive improvisation, and staying fully present in the moment. It’s about observing and responding to what’s happening in real-time, embracing the unpredictability of live performance.
Incorporating the Viewpoints Technique into your practice can be a game-changer, transforming how you connect with your craft and fellow performers.
