Performing Solo: structuring a solo performance

Workshop Program - Students

(VCE Drama Unit 4 - Solo Performance)

A two-hour intensive that focuses on ways to make solo performance from prescribed stimuli. Participants will explore the conventions and elements of non-naturalism, use a range of stimuli to create mini-solos, perform, analyse and work specifically on an aspect of their chosen prescribed structure. This an excellent opportunity for students (and teachers) to turn ideas and research into practical, creative theatre.
