REWILD

“Rekindled. Revitalised. Rewilded.”

What is Re:Wild

Re:Wild is an exploration of the principles and techniques for creating theatre in found landscapes and communities.

Wildworks’ areas of expertise include engaging a community in the research process, embedding non-professional creatives in project delivery, understanding the opportunities and challenges of making theatre-not-in-theatres, sound and music in the landscape, use of fire, falling light, distance and close-up, audience journey and both verbal and non-verbal storytelling.

Over the course of our workshops, alongside Wildworks artists, discover how Wildworks approach projects, our processes and well-worn secrets.

Through a mixture of conversation and practical activity you will gain:

An understanding of Wildworks’ techniques
Approaches to creating innovative and impactful scenography and design in found landscapes with a focus on Cornish landscapes and community
Methods for constructing story for site specific theatre
An understanding of how location influences the creative process
Knowledge about how to make outdoor work that is resilient and can adapt to the elements and other practical constraints
Practical experience of working as a team alongside Wildworks’ Artistic Director, Mydd Pharo, and Associate Artists

Who is this for?

We look for a range of artistic disciplines, professional and lived experience, and we particularly welcome applications from artists who have experienced barriers to the arts.
We ask participants to play, collaborate and embrace cross-disciplinary working; free from your usual day-to-day working practice.
