You will learn how to apply the company’s playful and collaborative methods in a learning setting, unlocking new ways to engage students with devising, physicality, and imaginative storytelling.

You’ll use Malory Towers as a stimulus and be guided through Emma Rice Company’s unique devising process, learning tips and tricks along the way.

You’ll learn how to foster an environment where students can think outside the box and develop their own creative ideas. You’ll be equipped with the tools to build ensembles within a classroom and build student’s confidence in devising. We want to work with you, so together we can inspire the next generation of theatre-makers.

As part of taking part in this workshop, participants will also receive access to our video resources, designed to help drama teachers and students understand Emma Rice Company’s work, and create their own theatre through using some of our approaches.

We encourage all participants to attend Malory Towers, either before or after the CPD workshop, to get the most out of the day.

The Emma Rice Company is one of the UK’s leading ensemble theatre companies, and our performing ensemble is a vital, professional and playful part of the family. Our Training Programme runs workshops and courses to inspire the next generation of theatre makers.
