Sandra employs the movement, gestures and techniques of classic mime to help students practice active listening, improve focus and concentration, stretch their imaginations and develop self-control—all fundamental skills for learning in any subject.

Sandra Hughes

Playwright, director, performer and choreographer Sandra Hughes, is known for creating magical, theatrical worlds. Hughes' artistic vision is fed by investigations into history, literature, and visual arts and world cultures, as well as physical engagement in the process of creating and combining theatre, mime and dance. Since her first production in 1975, she has developed an approach that allows her to apply her own unique movement vocabulary to a variety of situations and environments. She is the Founding Artistic Director of Gateway Performance Productions, the company in residence at The MASK Center in Atlanta, Georgia. The Sandra L. Hughes Theatre Collection documenting her professional theatre career as playwright, director, performer and choreographer is housed at the Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee Theatre Research Institute at Ohio State University.
