Tongue Fu Workshop with Chris Redmond

Website: https://www.mayflowerstudios.org.uk/what-s-on/tongue-fu-workshop-2021/

How do we write together? How do we make multi-voiced poems, stories and songs? What happens when we take creative risks and let go of the controls a little?

This workshop will explore these creative questions in a practical, playful, roll-your-sleeves-up-and-write-like-you-have-electric-fingers sort of way. You will create new collaborative work, explore performance possibilities then perform it on stage the same night with improvised soundtracks from the Tongue Fu band.

All levels of experience are welcome.
