history
Trinidad and Tobago theatre is fraught with the problem of scarce resources. The direct consequences of this grave reality include heightened competitiveness among participants in the genre, with limited opportunities for theatre practitioners to interact and develop their craft. We also recognise that participants in amateur productions and cultural festivals, like the Best Village Competition, are rarely given the opportunity to use the technical resources and specialised personnel readily available to their counterparts.
objective
The Theatre Production Skills Workshop seeks to provide the opportunity for amateur and inexperienced persons in the field to interact with seasoned Theatre arts professionals within a kind of mentoring process. The skills workshop aims to utilise the theatrical production process as a basis for the exchange of ideas and experiences with special emphasis upon Directing, Acting, Lighting and Stage Management. The workshops culminate in a staged Theatrical production and a post-production forum.
