This workshop is geared to playwrights and theatre makers.
Join playwright and creator Anna Chatterton in a dynamic workshop inspired by the creation process behind Gertrude and Alice, developed with the Independent Aunties. Through image-based prompts, guided writing tasks, and embodied exercises, participants will explore the beginnings of playmaking drawn from the body and specific tasks. This session offers an entry point into creating original work rooted in physicality, as a pathway to building character and generating text.
