empowering women through theatre - Byron
🌟 This course is open to anyone identifying as a woman, ALL levels of theatre experience are welcome 😀
In this 8 week women's theatre course we will continue to create a safe space to work with movement, improvisation, creative writing, voice and mask work.
Over the term we will share stories, develop our theatrical language and create individual and group work. We may have a small, informal showing of our work at the end of term to family and friends.
