Congregation of a different kind

Accessibility
The Blue Room Theatre is a wheelchair accessible space. The workshops are held in the upstairs theatre, which is accessible via lift. Accessible, all-gender bathrooms are located on the ground floor. The theatre will be warmly lit and spacious. The theatre may be air conditioned, and doors can be left open for improved ventilation, but the room has no windows. Chairs will be provided for seating. We will set up a quiet table in the bar space outside the theatre (the bar will not be in operation).
Participants can engage in the workshop with their own practice and capacity, and will be invited to explore their own practice through Annika's prompts.

Details
‘Congregation of a different kind’, is an ongoing workshop series that uses group singing, recitation, improvisation and vocal play to think about coming together and connecting to our voice, both collectively and as individuals.
Part of Audible Edge: Gym with A starting point, exhalation
Rioting against ways of teaching art and music which put brain over body, we invite you to partake in a day of collective embodied play for makers of all kinds. This features workshops from three local practitioners sharing how their body remains a grounded point of connection to their practice, and their well-being as artists. While ‘gym’ can be a scary word (and place) for many of us, we’re hoping to build our own positive associations with the word, creating a space to tune into our bodies without the internal and external criticism that’s all too often the dominant voice in these spaces.
