Fluidity and change

Waves and canals and channels of communication. Taking inspiration from the Chao Phraya river.

A trip down the Chao Praya river and canals on a charter boat - followed by a visit to the Grand Palace.

Ensembles will be general devising.

There will be a tech ensemble at this Festival. You will be asked to supply a number of tech students based, roughly, on the following formula:

5-10 students = 1 tech student nominee

10-15 students = 2 tech student nominees

15-20 students = 3 tech student nominees

We will be offering a High School Apprentice programme at this Festival.
