Devising Theatre Workshop – 8 week Mini Course
Front Room Weston-Super-Mare, Weston-Super-Mare, BS23 1FF
The Wardrobe Theatre and Front Room are offering an amazing opportunity to take part in a free 8 week Devising Theatre Workshop taking place this Autumn. Over the course of 8 weeks you will be given advice, mentorship and training by experienced industry professionals as you explore the processes of devising an original piece of theatre. The course will begin on Sept 7th and run each Sunday until finishing with a sharing on Oct 26th. These workshops have been made possible with support from Arts Council England

The workshops will offer skill enhancements in Devising, Music and Sound Design and advice on creating work that will offer you the best chance of getting support and bookings. Over the course of the 8 weeks you will be encouraged to interrogate an idea that you may already have or an entirely new one. Industry professionals will help you explore the idea and you will have the chance to share a scratch performance of a short snippet of your work at the end of the course.
This series of workshops will inspire, inform and support you to take steps towards creating an original piece of work in a supportive, collaborative and fun environment, so come along and enjoy the process of finding your creative voice. This is particularly aimed at early career theatre makers who would like to develop solo shows, or at groups who would already be interested in working together.

The Front Room is a fantastic addition to Weston’s cultural scene. The team brings quality work into Weston, which wouldn’t get to be seen otherwise, and provide a unique platform for local artists to perform.

The Front Room is fantastic. I have seen so many brilliant shows there in the short space since they opened. It is brilliant. It is exactly what Weston super Mare has so badly needed.

Great to have this venue in Weston super Mare! On the site of the old pizza express, this theatre has fully accessible facilities and refreshments available on site. We saw a brilliant family show put on by Kid Carpet and the Noisy Animals. Fantastic!
