Description
Rewriting Justice is a one-day introductory course for theatre-artists, early career playwrights and criminal justice professionals with an interest in the specialised field of theatre, women and criminal justice. Through drama activities and theatre writing exercises, group work and discussion, participants will:
• Learn creative ideas and exercises for running playwriting courses with women in criminal justice settings
• Explore best practice when working creatively with vulnerable groups
• Gain confidence and skills for managing challenging situations
• Hear insights about working in prisons as a playwright for Clean Break
The day will be facilitated by Anna Herrmann (Clean Break) and Vivienne Franzmann (playwright).
Anna has worked in the theatre and social change sector for over twenty-five years, as an actor, facilitator/tutor, director and senior arts manager. She has been Head of Education at Clean Break since 2002 leading its award-winning education programme and more recently its professional development programme. Vivienne was a drama teacher for 13 years and has taught playwriting around the UK and internationally. In 2008, she won a Bruntwood Playwriting Award with her first play ‘Mogadishu’ and went on to be awarded the George Devine Award for Most Promising Playwright in 2010. Vivienne was Resident Playwright for Clean Break Theatre Company in 2012. In 2014, Vivienne’s fourth play, commissioned by Clean Break, ‘Pests’ was co-produced by the Manchester Royal Exchange and the Royal Court, followed by a national tour.
Clean Break is the UK’s leading theatre company focussing exclusively on women in the criminal justice system. With a 38-year track record, this training day will give participants a unique insight into the company’s successful approach to theatre practice in both prison and community settings.
