Unity Theatre: Permission Slip with Dora Colquhoun: Workshop

Monday 10th June

18:00 – 20:00

You are invited to spend 2 hours dedicated to a creative idea at any stage and sit with it, hold it, interrogate it, ask it to dance, develop it, unpick it and dream with it.

There will be a series of writing, movement and visualizations exercises to help you unpack your idea. There is no pressure to have any outcome this is about giving yourself a permission slip to sit with your creative idea. You might then want to set fire to it, rip it up, or this might be the ignition you needed to develop it to the next stage.

Dora is a theatre maker based in Liverpool.

Please bring writing materials and comfy clothing and a pineapple. (The pineapple is optional)

This workshop is part of The Creative’Pool Summer Workshop series, curated by new Artistic Director, Eli Randle.
