Something from Nothing

by Quinn Bauriedel of Pig Iron Theatre Company, USA


Devising and Collaborative Process

Learn the process of creating an ensemble-based work of theatre through Pig Iron’s tried-and-true creation processes. Participants will be given performance assignments: themes, stories, characters, even a piece of music which must be solved as an ensemble. The playwriting and directing duties will be shared among the ensemble, and decisions will be made collaboratively.
This workshop emphasizes generating original material, physicalizing characters and theatrical ideas, structuring group improvisations into finished pieces and the role music and rhythm play in theatrical creation. Participants will work on taking material developed through improvisation and turning it into pieces that are precise, full, exuberant, and moving. The workshop will culminate in an open showing of short works created over the course of the program.
