Multidisciplinary Workshop
with Katie Duck 

For professional or emerging performers. Students in Dance, Theatre, Music, and the fine arts who are curious about interdisciplinary collaboration.

The central goal is to enhance real time composition skills and expand creative expression through: Physical improvisation / Vocal/textual experimentation / Sound and movement relationship / Awareness of space, timing, and audience / Collaborative ensemble work

While each workshop is shaped by the group’s experience and context, common elements include: Daily warm-ups that involve physical and vocal exercises to build presence and responsiveness / Improvisation scores (structured prompts or games) used to explore movement, voice, and interaction / Solo, duet, and group explorations using real-time composition principles / Interdisciplinary tasks, such as adding live music, text, or visual art to performance improvisations / Feedback & reflection sessions to refine awareness and artistic decision-making.

Katie’s teaching style emphasises: Intuition over impulse or technique / Failure as a tool for discovery / Humour / Real-time decision making / The body as an instrument of expression / Listening (to sound, space, and others)

Themes: The performer’s presence in the moment / The role of chaos and order in creativity / Political contexts in performance / Autonomy and authorship in improvised work

Workshops are intense, playful,  laced with Katie Duck’s insistence to find humour, creativity, and pleasure in every dark corner of the theatre.
