NEW WORKS DEPARTMENT #1 - DOUG IS HAMLET! & SMASH HIT!
The New Works Department is a program that takes the development of new work to the next level.
It is an in-depth interrogation of work that may have commenced as a text from a playwright or a concept from a creative team.
The work is tested and prodded by a director, dramaturg, actors and ultimately the playwright and key creatives, who make it production-ready.
Following a week of development, we present the work in a one night only public Show & Tell event, followed by a Q&A between the audience and the creative teams. You will not only hear some of the work read, but you will observe the actors working with the director, the conversations between playwright and dramaturg and director. You will see the creative team solving a problem through improvisation and play. It's pretty exciting to be right there as the work is developing.
It is the ‘juice’, the stuff not usually seen by people outside the theatre world, its what makes artists love what they do, and now the New Works Department opens its doors and invites everyone in.
