#JMKSpace: What’s the audience for with Chris Thorpe

#JMKSpace: What’s the audience for with Chris Thorpe

Whether we’re working on an existing text, making new work around a specific issue, writing a stand alone script or devising, it’s worth thinking about everyone who’ll be in the room with us eventually. This workshop will look at the different kinds of work we can ask our audiences to do. We’ll start with a single prompt around the Climate Crisis, and look at the different formal directions it could lead us in.

The session will take place 10.30am – 12pm on Wednesday 24th February on Zoom.

This free #JMKSpace event is open to all and there are 15 places available. To apply to take part please complete the form at the bottom of this page no later than 5pm on Friday 19th February.

As with all our events, please inform us as soon as possible if you are no longer able to attend.

If you have any further access requirements, need technical support or have any other questions, please indicate on the form or contact jo@jmktrust.org.
