Creation for Performance (making an act) With Cal De Cabaret

Ever feel overwhelmed by your ideas?

Got material but don’t know what to do with it?

Want to learn some new and interesting ways to smash it all together into the form of a show!?

Join Mook and Lizzy of Cal de Cabaret as they lead you through some techniques in material collation, theme finding, through line building and making your work feel complete.

Come with an existing idea, or with a blank slate!

What to expect:

• Excersises to generate/hone ideas
• Games
• Reflection
• Sharing with the group
• Feedback

You do not need exeprience in performing or making to join this workshop, but you should be prepared to get stuck into excersises and to share material you discover in a held situation with the group.
