NTL MAKERS’ LAB | OCT-NOV 2024.
A NEW COLLABORATIVE SERIES OF THEATRE MAKING WORKSHOPS FACILITATED BY ADAM DAVIES
WHAT IS THE MAKERS’ LAB?
The Makers’ Lab is a new workshop series by the Northern Theatre Laboratory in Manchester. It will bring laboratory theatre making practices fresh from Animikii’s current projects to the work at the NTL; practices that are rooted in collaboration and experimentation, invention and re-invention, trial and error, push and pull.
The Lab gives makers, performers and anyone curious enough to challenge themselves a collaborative space to go beyond interpretation, and discover invention in their theatre making and performing. Under the personal mentoring of Adam Davies and Martha Simon (Associate Director/Dramaturg) each participant will be given the tools to dig for sources of inspiration, ask rich questions of the material, and, alongside the facilitators, co-develop and feedback their discoveries into the active research.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
At the beginning you will be given a starting stimulus. Over the series you will be introduced to (and encouraged to expand on) exercises and methods to create embodied, inventive and rich pieces of theatre performance.
The series is made up of in-studio work and online creative writing/dramaturgical sessions. It is designed to give you time and space to research and craft your own pathway through the work, creating your own conclusion. You will be encouraged to give your fullest attention to your creative work and to breathe new life into your practice.
If you are a maker or a performer searching for new ways to approach your work this series is for you!
