The Theatre and Activism course was part of Locked Down, Looking Up funded by Arts Council England. This five week course which ran from 1st – 29th June embedded itself in the current and political world that we live in. Each participant and/or small group(s), had the chance to explore an issue that they feel passionate about, through a range of theatre techniques. These included (but not exhaustive): debate, protest, installation, ensemble, new writing, monologues, duologues, spoken word, character work, improvisation and script work.
The programme was facilitated with a person-centred approach with Caroline and Adam at the helm. The group of people that attended were lovely to work with and had brilliant ideas. The course materials are available here for those wishing to refresh their memories and new Theatre activists alike.
