WHAT I'VE DONE

OUR TOWN

HANDMAIDS DEVISING WEEKEND

WORKSHOP

The first weekend of August, dog & pony dc launched the creation of our first new production in nearly three years with an intensive devising weekend. This peepshow is being created and will be performed entirely by a non-male-identifying ensemble. Fifteen female and one gender fluid identifying artists gathered for two and a half days of discussion and devising. Our primary goal was to generate content for this new performance, which will premiere as part of the Women’s Voices Theatre Festival in February 2018.
