On Saturday 20 October, we held one of Fishamble's regular A PLAY FOR IRELAND workshops. Designer Niamh Lunny facilitated this workshop with the APFI playwrights at The Everyman, Cork, and has written a short post about what this group worked on together. 

​The Cork APFI playwrights are Noelle Brown, Lisa Carroll, Karen Cogan, John Doran, Bridgid Galvin, and Margaret McAuliffe.

​We had a great day in Cork at our A Play For Ireland workshop!

I explained the day would be a jigsaw of experience and we started by introducing ourselves as if everyone else in the room was blind.... It was a really interesting exercise for them & me!

Then I talked about  design, inspiration, collaboration, non-linear process, and more practical elements of designing for stage. I showed lots of images & designs and had examples of where things had worked and where things did not go as planned.

In the second half of the morning I did 2 exercises with postcards - carefully pick one post card to tell a story about in 6 sentences, and then be given one to do the same thing with, then examining the differences between having a choice etc. Then I got them to build their story/script or idea in 3 dimensions (with LEGO!)
The idea is that working in 3 dimensions will trigger ideas that talking and writing will not.
 
We finished the morning with a look at a methodology called ‘scamper’ and a visualization exercise! In the afternoon we had one to one chats which tended towards being an extension of the work done in the morning.
