Summer Schools
Devising Theatre
(postponed until summer 2013)
This five-day summer school is designed for people aged 17 plus interested in developing skills in devising theatre. It may be useful for anyone wishing to perform at the next level, pursue a pathway to further training or explore a career in this field.
By the end of this intensive short course, students should
have:
- been introduced to a range of techniques useful to the devising process
- developed an appreciation of the creative process and its relationship to a final product
- explored key aspects of contemporary devising processes
- had an opportunity to develop personal creative ideas within a collaborative process
During this one-week intensive experience you will work with the
Royal Conservatoire’s specialists in devising performance and other like-minded people to make a
short piece of original theatre out of everyday stories and experiences.
In a supportive and open environment you will explore and experiment
using contemporary techniques to develop essential performance skills. This creative process will
be designed, enacted, developed and delivered by you and your collaborating summer school
colleagues.
You will have the opportunity to develop and rehearse your own
creative ideas as well as those that are part of a collaborative project and ensemble.
The short course will provide a fun, supportive and challenging
environment in which all students, from beginners to advanced, can explore and
learn.
