DEVISED THEATRE WORKSHOP

conducted by THESPIS-Theatre Studies Society
Date: 22nd Sep 08. Monday.
Venue: LT13
Time: 1pm-4pm
 
Devised Theatre Workshop: is misleading. Let us take three hours to think of how theatre can be devised in a workshop. Or, how theatre is devised. Or, how you can workshop devised theatre. Or how devised is theatre. Or let us just play games – with theatre, on theatre, without theatre, about theatre? You decide.
 
But if you want instructions:
 
1. Be yourself – if you can.
2. Eat before you come.
3. Dress comfy. You’re going to move…differently.
4. Bring your glasses or contacts.
5. Bring yourself
6. Bring your favourite random item. Preferably a personal one with some childhood memory of it.
7. Bring a story book
 
NOTE: Please do read the play ‘The Silly Little Girl and The Funny Old Tree’ by Kuo Pao Kun before attending the workshop. The text may be found in the Central Library.   
 
The workshop will be facilitated by Alvin Lim, a NUS postgrad student and Thespis member.
 
We also request that you email your attendance to thespis.tssoc@gmail.com

THESPIS invites you to join us!

Come for our welcome tea and find out more about us and our upcoming activities. We will also be hosting a performance of HUSH!,a play that was well-received at the recent CELEBRATE DRAMA festival.

THESPIS is led by students of the Theatre Studies Department, but is open to all who share an interest for Theatre and its process.

We are a platform for budding practitioners, enthusiasts and the curious to learn, grow, develop and experiment.

Some of our activities for the new term include workshops, dramatised readings as well as another public performance, following up on last year’s successful sold-out run of Walking Into Doors.

See you at our welcome tea!

 

HUSH! is a devised performance that experiments with personal secrets. Borrowing from the concept of PostSecret, the highly charged performance will provide the audience a cathartic experience while ensuring their own secrets are kept hushed.
