What does a dramaturg do? What IS dramaturgy? How do I even pronounce that word?!?!

Join New Work & Learning Producer Rio Matchett for a two hour intensive workshop, introducing some of the practical and theoretical world of dramaturgy. The session will cover both the basics of play engineering – script structure, pacing, story and production dramaturgy – as well as introducing some of the philosophical questions of making theatre, including how to work with writers, how to create a high support high challenge environment, access, and decolonising the sector.

This workshop will be of use to writers, directors, producers, and anyone interested in how to make a play the best it can be.
