Responsive Ensemble Framework
An Introduction to Ensemble Building
A concise introduction to Lynn Panting’s approach to ensemble building.
This two-page resource outlines the core philosophy behind a responsive, movement-based ensemble practice. Rooted in the belief that everyone in the room is a creator, the framework weaves together embodiment, connection, and resonance to build cohesive, dynamic performance work.
Inside, you’ll find:
A clear overview of the three core threads: embodiment, connection, and resonance
Insight into how structure and responsiveness work together in rehearsal
A staged approach to building ensemble, from trust to integration
Examples of exercises and techniques that support shared vocabulary and group cohesion
