Dancing at Lughnasa Response Project
"It is not the literal past, the 'facts' of history, that shape us, but images of the past embodied in language.”Brian Friel
Join us for a unique and daring creative response project to the Sheffield Theatres production of Brian Friel's award-winning play, Dancing at Lughnasa.
Over half a term, you will:
- Observe rehearsals with Teacher's CPD
- Watch a performance of Dancing at Lughnasa
- Take part in a series of practical devising, costume design and performance workshops
- Explore key themes and ideas within this piece as well as the performance style and genre
- Develop a brand new piece of theatre to be performed on the set of the production
