Event Details

As part of the Nursery’s Spring season, The Nursery Theatre will be creating a second online house team to experiment online with combining freeform longform, grounded scenes and general nonsense. The aim of the show will be for the players to find the joy in the moment, be present, express themselves through their own experiences and understanding of self.

Rather than learning a form, the team will be introduced to a selection of techniques which may be used in the show and let the show create itself differently each night.

Techniques will include:

Playing from truth

Identifying and using point of view

Theme of the show

Patterning, replaying and varying scenes

Group games

Exploring our sense of self and cultural heritages

Experimenting with the virtual stage .
