Teo Castellanos is a creative chameleon. Playwright, director, actor, dancer and artistic director of D-Projects, the multifaceted artist is also a compelling teacher, one who mentored and helped launch Miami playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney on his path to international acclaim.
Castellanos, who appeared at GableStage this fall in McCraney's searing drama The Brothers Size, will perform again in Miami Jan. 19-21 when he brings the 10th anniversary edition of his award-winning solo show NE 2nd Avenue to the Carnival Studio Theater at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts. But first, from Sunday through Tuesday, Castellanos will share his wealth of experience in a workshop titled Crossing Thresholds: Creating Original Work.
The sessions take place at the PlayGround Theatre, 9806 NE Second Ave., Miami Shores. For a $65 fee, participants ages 16 and older can spend three hours each evening with Castellanos, developing original work or refining a work in progress. Students should wear movement clothes and dance shoes, or go barefoot. The sessions are from 6 to 9 p.m. Sunday, 7 to 10 p.m. Monday and Tuesday. For information, call Suzana Berger at 305-751-9550, ext. 260, or email her at [email protected].
