Makers on Making: Workshops


Calling all form benders, genre mashers, anti-disciplinarians, and process heads: this one's for you.

Like you, we're obsessed with thinking about the way things are made.

So this season, we've gathered the UK's most exciting established and up-and-coming theatre companies to lift the lid on their approaches to devising.

In an industry that so often treats makers as too risky or unwieldy to resource, we're creating a workshop series that puts collaborative process at its centre, making visible the many possible tools and approaches, while also diving headfirst into the unknown. 

For artists, the more you run your own rooms, the harder it becomes to find chances to peek into other people's processes. We want to give you the space to expand your horizons and be a novice again, all while championing companies at the forefront of a bold new wave of theatre making. 

This autumn, we're welcoming YESYESNONODirty HareEnsemble Not Found, and ThisEgg to the building to show us how it's done. 

Booking is now open for our November workshop with Ensemble Not Found. Sign up to our Artist Newsletter to be the first to hear about future workshop opportunities and artist events. 

Workhops are free to attend and take place at New Diorama Theatre, Theatre Deli, and partner venues.


Form & Theme & Not Necessarily Story (or, Making Devised Work Collaboratively)

Monday 8th December, 11:00am-1:00pm

Location: Theatre Deli (EC3A 4AF)

When words can’t describe the feeling, move. When movement can’t conjure it up either, sing. Play yourself. When that’s too much, put on a costume.

In the rehearsal room we can all be performers, directors, dramaturgs & an audience.

Join two-time Fringe First Award winner ThisEgg to explore ways into making theatre from nothing in a collaborative devising process (when you're happy for the roles to get a bit slippery).
