Visual story-telling
Participants work in small groups to create stories from a series of unrelated drawings. The drawings may need a series of extra drawings which connect them. This exercise is then developed so the stories emerge from the participant’s own drawings. The aim is to conjure up stories out of thin air which can either have theatrical or comic strip possibilities. The emphasis is on imagination, working in groups, surprising yourself and others. The ability to draw is a definite advantage but it’s not essential. The workshops can be tailored to suit beginners or those working in theatre/the visual arts. The workshops can last 2 hours , a day or longer.
