Workshop themes to choose from

Devising: Creating Stories, Together

What happens when a group of artists crafts a performance from the ground up, without a script? This masterclass on the concept of devising introduces techniques used by professional theatre makers to craft original work. Participants will explore storytelling through imagery, text, and movement, and learn how to create collaboratively. This workshop is ideal for those interested in new work, interdisciplinary performance, and devising as a creative methodology, in addition to fostering collaboration and creativity within the classroom.

Playwriting: Writing for the Stage

Led by an established playwright, this masterclass breaks down the essentials of writing for performance including structure, dialogue, voice, and more. Students will workshop ideas, generate new writing, and learn techniques to continue developing their own creativity through text. Tailored for youths, this masterclass is ideal for classes that look to elevate their mastery of writing or make the leap from page to stage.

Directing: The Director’s Vision

This directing masterclass offers students the opportunity to sit in the director’s chair and learn how to shape a theatre performance from interpreting text and working with actors, to making bold aesthetic choices for the audience. Students will explore theatre concepts such as scene work, develop their directorial eye through collaborative tasks, and sharpen their leadership skills by commanding the rehearsal process.

Stage Combat: Stage Fights, Actions and Conflicts

Learn how to choreograph and perform fights and physical contacts seen on stage and in film, with precision and paramount safety. Led by an experienced and specialized stage instructor, the masterclass covers fundamental unarmed or armed fighting techniques, and the principles behind effective illusion for audience or camera that portray convincing moves and emotion. More than just combat, students will also gain an understanding of timing, storytelling, and trust when performing physical conflict.

Movement: Telling Stories with the Body

Theatre begins with the body, and this physical theatre masterclass draws from movement-based practices to unlock presence, impulse, and storytelling through bodily expression. Students will learn about floor work, ensemble exercises, and exploration of space and rhythm, and increase their confidence in using their bodies as expressive tools on stage.

Improv: Be Quick on Your Feet and Have Fun!

More than just comedy, improvisation builds confidence, sharpens instincts, and teaches creative agility. In this masterclass, students will learn how to create characters, build scenes, take risks and above all, have fun doing it all and be surprised by their own comedic strengths!

Puppetry: Bringing Objects to Life

This masterclass introduces the power of puppetry and object theatre as serious creative practices. Students will explore how to animate everyday items, build character through movement, tell stories through objects and challenge the boundaries of performers and their puppets.
