This studio course introduces the art of engagement in theatre and performance creation practices, combining interdisciplinary art-making with regional, historical Indigenous context. Students gain skills and knowledge in areas such as when engaging Indigenous narratives.
The course includes practical explorations to create socially engaged theatre and performance, while sharing visual, symbolic, and language based knowledge, reflecting the historical Indigenous presence on the island. An introductory glance at the contemporary context for the Indigenous sites of significance and the current day urban archeological issues, will ground the site specific research, conducted through two local field trips.
