MAKE. MOVE. CONNECT. CREATE. An Invitation to Adelaide University’s Emerging Theatre Makers!

FREE THEATRE WORKSHOP | THURSDAY 19 NOVEMBER

Making in Relation: Arts Pedagogy at the Adelaide University Emerging Arts Hub.

Are you ready to take creative risks, develop your theatre-making skills and discover new possibilities as a performer and collaborator?

Adelaide University invites you to an exciting, hands-on theatre workshop with leading practitioners from Massive Theatre Company, Auckland, New Zealand.

This is an opportunity to step into the rehearsal room, experiment with new ideas, strengthen your performance practice and connect with other emerging artists in a collaborative, inclusive and supportive space where everyone can contribute, explore and grow.

What will you explore?

Through practical, embodied and ensemble-based activities, you will have opportunities to:

• Build your theatre-making skills through improvisation, devising, physical theatre and collaborative storytelling.

• Grow your confidence as a performer by exploring creative risks, developing ideas and discovering new ways to express yourself.

• Strengthen ensemble practice through trust, active listening, connection and working creatively with others.

• Experiment and create in a safe, respectful environment where curiosity is encouraged, individual contributions are valued and learning happens together.

• Discover new approaches to theatre-making that connect performance, lived experience and authentic storytelling.

• Connect with Adelaide’s emerging theatre community and build relationships with fellow performers, theatre makers and future Drama and Creative Arts educators.

Whether you are developing your skills as a performer, exploring your identity as a theatre maker, preparing to teach Drama, or simply looking to challenge yourself creatively, this workshop offers space to experiment, collaborate and be inspired.

Learn from leading theatre practitioners:

Sam Scott, founder and Artistic Director of Massive Theatre Company, brings decades of experience in ensemble practice, physical theatre, devising and autobiographical storytelling. Her approach places trust, collaboration and the lived experiences of performers at the heart of theatre-making.

Sam will be joined by Denyce Su’a, a long-standing member of Massive Theatre Company, as co-tutor. Together, they will share their expertise and invite participants into the creative processes that underpin Massive’s distinctive approach to collaborative performance.
