Thinking Dramaturgically as Directors: Workshop

Thinking Dramaturgically as Directors offers an open and dialogic space for theatre directors to reflect on and critically review their practice and philosophy as practitioners.

The process will draw on experience, ideas and aspirations that inform the way directors work, to analyse, question and evolve dramaturgical frames of theatre making.

This 3-hour workshop is limited to arts practitioners who are Malay, Indian, Tamil identifying and/or are working within the Malay, Tamil or Indian theatre/arts contexts in Singapore. If in doubt, please reach out to [email protected] to check if you qualify.
