About this Event

Vanessa Grasse Workshop: Elysia

Date: 27th of April, 2024

Location: Studio 1, Workshop Theatre, Cavendish Road, Woodhouse, Leeds, UK

In this multidisciplinary workshop, artist Vanessa Grasse will share some of the creative and ecological approaches from her current ACE funded research and development project, Elysia. Elysia is a creative research project delving into the profound interconnection between humans and the non-human world, and the workshop is an opportunity to experience how performance might be used to explore and understand ecology, environmentalism, and our relationship with the planet.

This workshop is open to undergraduate and postgraduate students with an interest in performance. It will involve movement exercises and will take place indoors in Studio 1 in Workshop Theatre and outside in St George's Field. Please wear comfortable clothes to move in, and comfortable shoes and waterproofs for outdoor practice. Bring a journal and/or notebooks for writing and/or sketching.

Please note, access to the studio is up a short flight of stairs. Please contact Ben Dunn ([email protected]) with any queries and to let us know of any access needs.

The workshop is hosted by the School of English at the University of Leeds. Elysia is currently in artistic residency at Stage@Leeds and The Cultural Institute.
