Performance Workshop: Pieces of a Painter

Moulded developed our Pieces of a Painter workshop from the production of the same name. It is an abstract yet accessible piece exploring themes of problem solving and discovery through art, food and fantasy. The overall aim of the workshop is to provide a platform and stimulus for creative writing. The workshop includes an interactive performance of Pieces of a Painter, providing the participants with a multi-dimensional exploration of our senses through live music, fruit and imaginative play. Our workshop is structured in three parts, with an optional extended classroom project.

The Pieces of a Painter workshop lasts for approximately one hour and is run by the three members of Moulded, Emily, Natalie and Soniya. We require 15 minutes either side of the hour workshop to do the initial set up and then clear away. The optimum number of participants per workshop is 25-30, but we can create a workshop to accommodate your specific requirements.
