Debate: Participatory Theatre: The Saviour of Regional Theatre?

About

29 January 2015 at Nottingham Playhouse

4pm - 6:30pm

With yet another British Theatre funding crisis, the future of regional theatre remains uncertain. Nonetheless, some forms of Participatory Theatre appear to be thriving. These include Theatre in Education, Young People’s Theatre, Forum Theatre and Theatre for Development; performance-focussed work and process‐based activity aimed at personal, group and / or social development.

Many regional theatres have a longstanding and precious relationship with their communities. Could a dynamic and participating community be the life blood that regional theatre seeks?
