Sharpen Your Toolkit: A Masterclass for Teachers and Teaching Artists
Thursday 12 March / 10am 5pm
In a workshop created specifically for teachers and teaching artists, Imaginary Theatre’s Thom Browning will deliver a practice-led masterclass that offers participants an opportunity to refresh, re-invigorate and renew their skillsets for directing and devising contemporary theatre.
Utilising hands-on exercises and practical examples for generating material with students of all skill levels, Thom will guide teachers through everything from running successful warm-ups through to strategies for devising work through a multi-arts lens.
Tackling the craft of theatre-making head-on, this workshop will be a must for our community of teachers and their professional development.
