The Byre Theatre is offering a day long Continuing Professional Development course entitled “Devising Contemporary Theatre – a Masterclass”. This CPD takes a fresh approach to what, how and where young people learn and aims to support the nurturing of young people as successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors.
As a member of Fife’s new Creative Learning Network and as a steering group member of Fife’s Cultural Consortium (supporting the delivery of Fife’s Cultural Strategy), we are delighted to be able to offer a one-off in-service opportunity at Auchterderran Centre, Cardenden.
The workshop will be delivered by the Education and Outreach Officer from the Byre Theatre, who will share drama games and exercises and workshop plans on how to make, create a piece of devised, contemporary theatre in the Secondary classroom.
