Ensemble-Made Chicago Virtual Workshop Series
Select dates, October 12 - November 14, 2020 * Pick and Choose workshops
Chicago is home to one of the most exciting and democratic forms of theater: devised and ensemble-made performance – a way of working that invites everyone to be a part of creating something new and uniquely theirs. Drawing inspiration from Ensemble-Made Chicago: A Guide to Devised Theater by authors Chloe Johnston (of Neo-Futurists) and Coya Paz Brownrigg (of Free Street Theater), Chicago theater ensembles lead free co-creativity workshops for theatre creatives, performers and artists of all backgrounds, teachers, students, and everyone curious to learn new collaboration tools. Workshop schedule and registration at chicago.gov/dcase.
