Join AOIBH CLARKE for a creative workshop on Writing for Performance. In this two-hour session we’ll explore how to craft work that is designed to not only be read but heard. Whether you’re a poet, playwright, storyteller or a total beginner, this workshop will be accessible for everyone. We'll be experimenting with creative prompts, reading some impressive work and engaging in lively discussion on how to craft writing that is ready for an audience. You’ll leave with fresh ideas, new confidence in your voice, and hopefully, your next big idea. Aoibh has been facilitating this work for almost 10 years and is passionate about creating warm, creative environments that support participants to thrive.
