Job Responsibilities
This R&D will explore how the play can effectively externalise feelings of queer euphoria & community through magical-realism & movement, which will then inform the script's final draft.
The script is largely written through naturalistic dialogue, but the world incorporates magical elements, setting the play within an abstract world that reflects the character's queer experience.
We'll also use movement to delve into the subtextual, unspoken intimacy between the characters. We aim for the R&D to clarify the ensemble-movement language and style for the piece, which would then act as a springboard for a future rehearsal process.
We'll explore Scene 1 in depth as it's a key moment of magical-realism, euphoria & movement.
Please note: this scene includes a brief moment of explicit intimacy, so there will be an intimacy coordinator present for a day to help tackle that together.
You would then be performing in a sharing of Scene 1 to an invited audience on Thursday 17th September.
