A new semester begins at the National Theatre Institute at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre Centre, where Marya has been teaching since, gulp, 1984, and where Dan and Marya have been teaching mask making for ten years and more as the first workshop of the semester, initiating the students into a time of glorious imagination and risk fail risk again thinking! This year, Marya and Dan, of the Mystic Paper Beasts, will teach on Monday, 1/23, from 1 – 10 pm, during which some 27 masks will begin to take shape. They will receive their paint and stories on Thursday 1/26, and their performances on Friday, 1/27. The Beasts are delighted to once again be on this journey with NTI, Spring 2012.
