Last Dance: Workshop

The Feral Theatre co-directors Emily, Rachel and Persephone will facilitate a workshop following the same 3 part structure as the performance. We will invite participants to play with fabric bodies, filled with different materials: cotton wool, yarn, shredded paper etc, to create and deconstruct a small personal object. We will engage in a participatory experiment, asking questions around the objects’ relationships with the self, the other and the more-than-human-world:

• What can these objects stand for?

• How can we explore our relationships through interacting with these diminishing forms, and what are the outcomes?

• Can these objects become bridges between worlds and realities?

• Can engagement in a creative ritual lead to action, and social and environmental flourishing?

• What is that process and how can we know?
