SUMMARY:Making Work From Lived Experience: Exploring Grief &#038\\; Loss
DESCRIPTION:This workshop invites participants to explore how our lived e
 xperiences can become a starting point for making theatre. Through playfu
 l\\, practical and reflective exercises\\, we’ll explore ways of transf
 orming personal memories\\, feelings\\, stories and fragments of experien
 ce into creative material for performance.\\nWith a particular focus on 
 grief and loss\\, we’ll consider how these experiences might be explore
 d through the body\\, voice\\, movement\\, writing &amp\\; text\\, and in
  the compositions we create.\\nWe’ll look at how we can shape\\, fictio
 nalise and transform lived experience.\\nThis is a theatre-making worksh
 op\\, not a therapy session. I am not a therapist or counsellor\\, and th
 e workshop is not intended to provide therapeutic support. We will approa
 ch grief and loss through a creative and artistic lens\\, with care and r
 espect for individual boundaries. There is no expectation to share anythi
 ng that you don’t want to\\, and you are always free to step back from 
 an exercise or work from imagination\\, observation or fictional material
  instead.\\nThe workshop is open to different levels of experience.\\nCom
 e ready to play\\, experiment\\, reflect and make.\\nAbout the facilitato
