17 Dec Remote Theatre
January 14 th, 11:30 – 12:30 local time Bucharest, Romania
Online Training
With theatres and arts-centres closed during the pandemic, performing remotely became the only way in which storytellers and actors worldwide could share their art with an audience. But remote theatre (RT) as an art form predates the pandemic.
It has its roots in the UN schools in Gaza, where it was developed by English teachers to help their students use English in meaningful ways. In this workshop we’ll tease out the features of RT and explore a form of RT called “Our story, your story”, which converts the stories of the participants into remote plays.
