Coleen Shirin MacPherson

Writing in Movement

Creative writing workshops focusing on dramatic text, journeying participants through exercises that bring writing into movement. We will observe, play and write. Looking at the concrete, dramaturgy, physical action, language and writing from the body. Inspired by Ecole Jacques Lecoq, Coleen will lead the workshop with the goal of inspiring writers, theatre makers and creative types to capture the world in writing. Coleen has led workshops at The Theatre Centre and The University of Toronto.
