Composer Matteo Fargion and choreographer Jonathan Burrows invite you to a day long workshop in connection with their current collaboration with the Bøler Samvirkelag women's collective, looking at questions of how to balance the many and overlapping elements at play in the making of a performance, including concept, context, image, form, dramaturgy, materials and daily practice. The workshop will be a mixture of practical work and discussion, with the workshop split into two halves: Matteo will spend the morning looking at composition, followed by Jonathan discussing more dramaturgical issues in the afternoon.
