Developing Your Solo Performance

Led by Liv Ello, Developing Your Solo Performance was a new weekly workshop hosted at London Performance Studios.

This workshop is for theatre makers and performers looking to develop their own solo work. These workshops will offer support in one of the most difficult points in a solo creating process - the very beginning. The workshops will provide developmental tools to start creating a solo piece and a space to explore, connect and discover.

Each three hour session will consist of discovering, experimenting and sharing. Over the course of 4 sessions, participants will take part in theatre-making exercises to apply to the creation of their solo work, exploring their ideas and being open to discover, develop and provoke.

This workshop series is ideal for early career theatre-makers and performers who have an idea for a solo piece, however big or small, and would benefit from having a space to feel supported in the development of their ideas.
