Description
Collective Creation Workshop: From Personal Experience to Theatrical Expression, with Corinne Jaber
How can a personal story become a theatrical performance? How can we transform the experiences, realities, and challenges of the world we live in into authentic theatrical expression?
How can a personal story become a theatrical performance? How can we transform the experiences, realities, and challenges of the world we live in into authentic theatrical expression?
As part of the Andrei Vartic International Contemporary Theatre Festival, actress, playwright, and director Corinne Jaber will lead a collective creation workshop for actors, playwrights, and directors interested in exploring new ways of developing stories for the stage.
Drawing on her artistic experience, Corinne Jaber proposes a hands-on creative process in which participants will discover how a theatrical piece can be developed from scratch through collaboration, improvisation, and experimentation.
How will the workshop unfold?
Each participant is invited to bring a story they consider relevant and feel personally connected to. It may be a lived experience, a story they have read, or one they have heard. What matters is that they can share it in a way that captures the interest of others.
From the stories presented, three will be selected as the starting points for three short theatrical pieces, developed collectively.
Participants will explore different tools of theatrical expression: improvisation, playwriting exercises, the use of multiple languages, movement, voice, and sound. The emphasis will be on finding simple, direct, and authentic ways of telling a story.
At the end of the workshop, the three pieces will be presented to a small audience, followed by a discussion about the creative process and the theatrical experience.
Dates: 18–21 November 2026
Time: 14:00–19:00
Working language: English
As part of: Andrei Vartic International Contemporary Theatre Festival, 2nd Edition.
