Cora Bissett Workshop

Posted by Tom Brogan on Tuesday, January 20, 2015

This is a really good write-up, by playwright Nicola Todd, of a recent workshop run by Cora Bissett at the Tron.

"Ms Bissett also spoke about creating rounded characters - there are no such things as good guys vs bad guys, people are complex and multi-dimensional, and we have to portray that or no one is likely to care about them. She told us that she hadn't wanted to set the show in a traditional theatre, where the audience are removed from the action and viewing the character from a distance. She wanted to bring the audience inside the character's head, so that they become part of the experience."
