Radio Drama Writing Workshops
I really want to do this workshop. At only €25 per person for a full weekend workshop, its an excellent opportunity to really learn the craft of radio drama, it covers radio script writing, performance, sound, recording... its hosted by the wonderful people at Sessions House Arts Centre in Thomastown, Co Kilkenny
They don't say what the class limit is, but I reckon at that price it will be booked up fairly quickly.
Radio Drama and
Performance Workshop
'A radio play will be devised, developed,
scripted and performed, specifically for and about The Sessions House Arts
Centre, the old Court House and Gaol in Thomastown, Kilkenny.
Incorporating the
rich history of the building, participants will devise a short piece for radio
which they will subsequently perform and record under the facilitation of
playwright, Gillian Grattan. The workshop will
explore the following; script writing, editing, acting, creating sound effects,
character creation and development, microphone technique and the physicality of
radio acting.'
Content:
- Development of a
story and plot which directly relates to Sessions House.
- Devising and
writing of the script or scripts.
- Performance of the
piece by participants for recording.
- Sound effects which
will be sourced by participants as the project will be recorded in the
traditional style: ie: no computerised effects.
- Music, an original
piece to be devised by participants.
- Recording the
piece, in a professional studio setting
- Performance of the
piece to an audience in November at Session House.
