Explore Blown Fuse’s collaborative approach to creating original performance. This practical workshop introduces devising methods rooted in collaboration, technology, ensemble work, physical storytelling and image-based creation.
Participants will generate short pieces of new material and discover ways to turn impulses into bold theatrical choices.
We want naturalistic text to feel believable, but does it need to look natural too? Why can’t a character’s impulses lead them onto the kitchen table, or flat on the floor?
In this workshop, we’ll work as an ensemble to explore bold physical choices and discover how movement can unlock the rhythm of text. Through play, improvisation, and experimentation, we’ll open up new possibilities for surprising, dynamic theatrical moments.
Learn how to shape meaningful artistic work with and for communities. We will investigate ethical collaboration, consent, shared authorship and participatory approaches that centre lived experience. This creative workshop is ideal for artists interested in social engagement and community led practice.
