Drama workshop
Year 13 recently took part in a Zoom workshop with the UK based theatre company Paper Birds, who are renowned as leaders in devised verbatim theatre. The company writes: ‘Our vision is to provoke change, one encounter at a time. Our mission is to be quiet rebels, amplifying the voices of everyday people. We inspire change through the theatre we create.’
This workshop feeds in to the development of the students’ own piece of verbatim theatre that forms the basis for their Component 1 Practical exam. As part of the process the students explored the use of physical theatre, ensemble, chorus and narration.
“We enjoyed it greatly, it was extremely useful and enriched our verbatim theatre experience.”
