Devising is THE hot topic in Theatre Arts – not only is it an essential part of the IB Theatre curriculum, it’s also the most powerful way to amplify your students’ voices in your Theatre Arts classroom. But where to start?? In this session, you’ll learn a step-by-step process for devising with your students, including practical tips for turning the messy creative process into a structured performance your students can be proud of (and your admin will applaud!). If you’re nervous about tackling devised theatre with your students, this workshop will give you the tools you need to approach this work with confidence. And if you’re a devising pro, this workshop will give you fresh ideas about how to generate content and polish your performances. This approach is relevant for in-class projects and public performances, short form and full-length productions. Participants will walk away with the know-how to lead a devising process in their classrooms tomorrow.
