Open Court Festival
After weeks of work in collaboration with The Royal Court Theatre my second commissioned piece is finally complete! The video focuses on their recent theatre festival Open Court, a three week takeover of the Theatre by it's youth board of young writers and theatre practitioners aged 15- 24. They created the plays. They decided the content. The Royal Court gave them the space. I really enjoyed being apart of this exciting event that focused on young creativity and diversifying theatre. Please check out the video and see what it was like for yourself.
