WAYS OF WORKING: READY-MADE THEATRE - A Workshop by Quarantine (UK) [November 2007]
Fri 2nd Nov, 10.00 am - 5.00 pm
  
Quarantine have fast developed an international reputation as one of Britain's most distinctive creators of new theatre, creating a unique body of work that blends incredible invention with an intimate contact with reality
Mae Quarantine wedi ennill enw rhyngwladol yn gyflym fel crewyr theatr newydd a saif ar wahân ym Mhrydain, yn creu corff unigryw o waith sy’n cyfuno dyfeisgarwch anhygoel gyda chysylltiad agos â realaeth.
The whole thing might be the bastard offspring of the Wooster Group crossed with the Osbournes - radical reality theatre. Robert Dawson-Scott, The Times on Quarantine's Butterfly
Over the past 9 years, Quarantine have developed a unique reputation for their approach to creating theatre from ready-made sources - working with both trained and untrained performers ("experts in everyday life") to create work where there is the smallest of gaps between performer and material.
This one-day practical workshop will introduce Quarantine's methods of creating a dramaturgy of real, lived and relived experience, looking at performance strategies, techniques for making text and scenography. The workshop will make specific reference to SUSAN & DARREN, Quarantine's show at The Foundry (31 October - 2 November).
The workshop is open to all, though numbers are limited. Please note - as Quarantine's approach involves developing material from the performer's own history, each participant in the workshop will be expected to share their choice of personal experiences as a source of material.
