Symposium: On Showing and Writing Training
London, 30th November 2016, 2 – 5 pm
This blog post captures in a series of audio files the symposium that launched the special issue ‘On Showing and Writing Training’ of the Theatre, Dance and Performance Training Journal. It brought together writing, improvisation, experimentation and images to explore how performance is made manifest, represented and reproduced through training.
