Assembly
Skills development program for emerging artists
La Boite's Assembly is an eight-week skills development and showcase program, designed for twenty-seven emerging artists.
Throughout the program, participants will collaborate with like-minded peers, create and develop a new work, and learn from La Boite mentors and makers through creative development workshops.
Nine directors, nine writers and nine actors are selected to participate, and work towards a public outcome.
Emerging Directors
Directors will explore the directing process, working with text, working with actors, developing a directorial vision and utilising production elements. Directors will be paired with a writer and actor to create a ten-minute monologue for presentation in the Roundhouse Theatre.
Emerging Writers
Writers will analyse the writing process, dramaturgy, drafting and editing. Participants will be paired with an actor and director to develop a ten-minute monologue for the stage.
Emerging Actors
Actors will deep-dive into the acting process, working with text, character, voice and movement. Participants will be paired with a writer and director to realise a ten-minute monologue in the Roundhouse Theatre.
