A Workshop with Carley Magee
New Writers Workshop
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
This workshop is designed for students, emerging artists, and anyone who’s curious about creating theatre for audiences — how to make work without putting yourself in a vulnerable position, while maintaining authenticity.
The workshop will be split into two sessions, writing and making, to explore their differences as well as the connective tissue between. As well as looking at how everyday creativity can contribute positively to overall wellbeing.
A project supported by PEACEPLUS, a programme managed by the Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB).
