Intimacy Choreography

 
Intimacy Choreography is the codified practice of choreographing moments of staged intimacy in order to create safe, repeatable and effective storytelling. The Intimacy Consultant is more than a choreographer; they are an advocate for the ensemble and for each actor. A growing and important field, Theatrical Intimacy Choreography empowers artists with the tools to ethically, efficiently, and effectively stage intimacy, nudity, and sexual violence.
