What Makes A Village? A free, 2 hour discussion and gentle movement workshop about rural life

What Makes A Village? Movement and Discussion Workshop

As part of the development of a new dance-theatre work, VILLAGERS, by Rachel Elizabeth Coleman, this free workshop is open to anyone with lived experience of rural living. The 2 hour session will see participants taken through a series of gentle movement and discussion exercises, these opening up creative conversations with strangers on belonging, identity and connection for rural communities.

The workshop will directly contribute to a new piece of dance performance, created by Rachel Elizabeth Coleman and a company of practitioners based in the South West, being made at AMATA Arts Centre in Falmouth this summer.

The workshop is open to all ages and no movement experience is required to participate. The only requirement is that you identify as having experience of rural living — this might mean having grown up rurally, moved to a rural place, or working in a rural area.

Doors and bar open at 7pm
