The programme consists of a
series of practical workshops and tutorials towards exploring the nature of a
director’s work. You will develop practical skills in:

·        
Directing

·        
Producing (sourcing work space, programming, budgeting, casting)

·        
Fundraising (as part of the training, we, as a group, will engage
in actual fundraising activities)

·        
Arts management (administration, marketing & press)

·        
And backstage work

The sessions are led by StoneCrabs
Artistic Directors, Franko Figueiredo and Kwong Loke, and various StoneCrabs
Theatre Company Associates (Tanja Pagnuco, Chris O’Donnell & Tereza
Araujo). Guest theatre practitioners are also brought in to aid the discovery
of a variety of theatre traditions and techniques and to assist you in
unlocking your creative potential.

 This is
an opportunity for
aspiring theatre directors and those who are at the very beginning
of their career.
