MOVEMENT MAKES STORY: DEVISING FROM A PHYSICAL PRACTICE

About the show

Sometimes it only needs simple gestures or patterns to tell a story.

In this workshop, Christina Deinsberger will lead physical exercises to explore a devising practice, connecting the individual body to the collective to create an image, explore a dynamic, or tell a little story. For actors, directors and theatre non-professionals – all experience levels are welcome. Wear clothes you are comfortable to move in.

Christina Deinsberger is a Berlin based director, Complicité associate artist and co-founder of fish in a dress. Previous work includes Undine Geht at Schaubühne Berlin, associate director on Mnemonic at National Theatre London as well as extensive international touring experience. Christina’s artistic strength lies in psychologically detailed, physically challenging, formally experimental work. She has a special interest in working with complex sound design and a distinctive aesthetic language.

International theatre-collective fish in a dress will be in Exeter for one day only, and this unique workshop will be followed by an evening performance of their critically-acclaimed show The City for Incurable Women.
