unfolding of stories

Introduced in 2022, DIVERGENT THEATRE COLLECTIVE'S "IT'S ALL IN THE PROCESS" INITIATIVE - kasaysayan (unfolding of stories) continues.

Divergent Theatre Collective has a 'new work in development' initiative for emerging writers/ theatremaker and performer . Each month, one theatremaker/ writer/ performer  will have the opportunity to  ‘work and play’ on their new piece, or an existing idea  (as long as it hasn’t been developed or performed). DTC also encourages new work that has a multi lingual approach to text and a hybrid (performing, visual arts, music, dance, drama, spoken word) approach to the work at hand.

DTC will provide support, feedback and allow the creative to explore different possibilities and approach to the work at hand. The focus is on the PROCESS and DISCOVERIES along the way.

The program will be conducted online, several meet-up with DTC Artistic Director and associates and is open to emerging writers, especially from Indigenous or culturally diverse backgrounds. There is also an emphasis on documentation, professional and self development by the participating creative. The artists reflection and 'collage of work' will be shared through our website and social media platforms.
