Quarterly Meeting #2 (Year 3) - 7th January 2019

As usual, there were lots of exciting things to update members on tonight.  Shereen, new Head of Neighbourhood Theatre, led the meeting, and there was lively discussion around new initiatives and hopes for the future of NhT.

Shereen talked about the new initiatives she has launched since taking up position three months ago, So You Want to Be...., Neighbourhood Play, and Neighbourhood Voices.

So You Want to Be....is a series of masterclasses, currently available to NhT members only (see details in earlier posts below).  

Neighbourhood Voices will be a year-long writing programme, run by Dramaturg Ola Animashawun, meeting once a month, and including an introduction to playwriting, trips to see a range of plays in fringe, regional and West End venues, as well as gig theatre.  There will also be visiting playwrights teaching one-off sessions.  

There have been over 100 applications for the twenty places on the course.  Shereen is keen to make it a progression route in to the industry for those seriously wanting to make a career in playwrighting, hoping that the course will bridge the gap between community and industry.   

Neighbourhood Play is an ongoing series of workshops for those aged 55+ centring around the themes and ideas of Main House shows.  Participants will see a show at the Young Vic, and will then take part in a set of three workshops, using movement skills to create a short piece for a ‘soft sharing’.  The workshops will be facilitated by Movement Director, Corinne Meredith.  The project launched in December with a taster session, including a trip to see Spring Awakening (see earlier posts below), and has proved extremely popular, with 80 applicants for sixteen places.  The next set of workshops will revolve around The Convert, currently showing at the Young Vic.

Other work Shereen updated members on included Our England, the community response to the Young Vic’s My England project (see earlier posts below for details), for which selected writers from the community were mentored by professional playwrights, and wrote monologues.  These monologues are being rehearsed this week, and there will be a sharing this Friday (11th January) for an invited audience of friends, family and industry professionals.  There is very limited space for audience as it is a one-off sharing, and it is important that the writers are able to share their work with family and friends, but NhT members are invited to express interest if they would like to come.

NhT members have also been invited to see a preview of Draw Me Close by Jordan Tannahill, a National Theatre and National Film Board of Canada production, presented by the Young Vic.  The production combines virtual reality and animation and is experienced in separate sessions that start every 25 minutes and last about 70 minutes.  NhT members will be asked for feedback on the experience.

Shereen also talked about the next community show, which will be American Dream, in response to the Main House production of Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, which opens in May.  Recruitment workshops for this piece will be held in the next few weeks.  Many members have already signed up for these.

There will also be a community response to the show Bronx Gothic, which opens at the Young Vic in June.  The show is written and performed by Okwui Okpokwasili, and uses theatre, dance and visual art installation, to explore her memories of growing up in the Bronx.  Shereen suggested that the community response could also entail a multi-disciplinary approach, inviting different artists of different disciplines in over the course of a week to teach their skills, meaning that participants could choose the form which best suits them to express their ideas.  NhT members were very enthusiastic about this idea, and the proposal that the performance would take the form of a cabaret night.

Before closing the meeting, Shereen invited feedback from members about the projects she has initiated so far, and what else they would like to see coming up.  Members had the opportunity to discuss this with the person next to them, before feedback to the whole group.  Discussion included terminology for what is currently called the ‘recruitment’ or ‘selection’ process for community shows, and how individuals might obtain feedback from these processes if they are unsuccessful in securing a place/part; and the desire for more opportunities to learn about directing.  

One of the key areas of discussion was around members’ thoughts about initiating a forum for skills sharing and creativity that is not purely reliant on NhT/Young Vic staff.  Mathilde suggested some form of intranet which could host members’ profiles so that members are able to ‘”tap into each others’ skills” if they wanted, for example, to put on a show independently, or contact each other to create their own social activities.  Many members are already proactive in asking to use space or resources at the Young Vic, and this seems to be an area that could perhaps be developed more formally.

There was also a lot of praise for what NhT is providing for members.  In particular, members were pleased about the provision of activities for over 55s.  Deborah talked about how difficult it can be to change career at that age, and how exciting it is to have the opportunity to do this through the Young Vic.  

The desire for more opportunities to socialise was another key area of discussion.  The provision of refreshments at workshops and meetings was also mentioned, as it is an opportunity for everyone to meet and socialise equally before an event begins, removing the need to purchase food or drink elsewhere.  Many members also really valued the Kitchen Conversations that have taken place.  The opportunity to use the quarterly meetings as a chance to socialise as well as meet was raised; and one member also suggested a ‘pot luck’ dinner (where everyone brings a dish), which Shereen has agreed to organise before the next meeting in April.

No one should ever want to be me and no one should have ever stolen from me

I work hard, and I try even harder. I have my own apartment, I always pay my bills and I achieve as many accomplishments as I can because I feel inadequate due to the fact that I have a usually fatal disease. I recently went through people I know stealing my bank information, breaking into my house and taking things, even my daughter’s toys, and even going as far as to sell the VIN number of my vehicle. They then told me they did it because they wanted what I had and begged me not to do anything to them criminally.

If they want what I have, they would want to not be able to sleep because the pain is to great, even with pain killers, and they would want to go to the hospital all the time and get jabbed with needles, and they would want to throw almost everything that they eat... because that's how I see my life.

My accomplishments aren’t what I think about as I hurl my dinner into the toilet, and my truck is the last thing on my mind when I have an 18 gauge needle be inserted into my shoulder. Those things are a product of me fighting as I hard as I do to take care of myself because I have to. Because being sick is expensive and being in pain is hard.

So to the people who stole from me, because they want to be like me, I hope karma  makes you like me. Chronic illness can happen to anyone and so can tragedy and sickness. I believe that God will make sure you have everything I do, my money, my degree’s that you stole, and some terrible thing you will have to deal with for the rest of your life. Whether its the prison you’re about to go to, or something worse, I hope the people who stole from me get what they want which is to deal with something as terrible as I have too. Because if you just have my money and my things, you’re not really me.

I am sick, I am accomplished, I am a mother, I am a wife, I am a voice, and I am a hard worker. I am all of those things, you can’t have one without the rest. And I believe in justice.

So You Want to Be....A Drag Artist or Cabaret Performer - Monday 11th December 2018

Tonight was the first of a new series of one-off masterclasses for NhT members, launched in response to feedback in meetings asking for more workshops focused on different areas of the theatre industry.

So You Want to Be....A Drag Artist or Cabaret Performer was run by director Leo Skilbeck, and spaces for the workshop filled up quickly.  Participants took part in discussions around gender, and had the opportunity to experiment with costume and make-up, creating characters and developing scenarios for them.  Participants were also treated to food from Nando’s, delivered directly to the workshop.

The next masterclass will be on January 14th 2019, and will be So You Want to Be....A Theatre Change-Maker, and will be led by festival and theatre producer, facilitator and curator Tobi Kyeremateng.  This masterclass will explore the current political and social landscape and make-up of theatre, and what individuals can do to change this or take action on it, as well as information on producing, facilitating or curating arts events. Places are limited, and those interested must sign up by emailing Neighbourhood Theatre by January 7th 2019.

So You Want to Be....A Drag Artist or Cabaret Performer: Feedback

Participants clearly enjoyed last night’s first So You Want to Be.... masterclass.  Here’s what one NhT member had to say about his experience:

“This was a very enjoyable and effective workshop which took us from very general conversations and exercises around gender to some extraordinary transformations within a remarkably short space of time. We all had great fun dressing up and trying on different clothes.It was like being a kid again!

But it was not only a question of creating characters but complete scenarios, along with our own individual soundtracks! In fact, it was a bit sad when it all came to an end and we had to wipe off the make-up and put the characters we'd created back into their boxes! They certainly took on a life of their own!

Many thanks to Luke and Lucy for all their skill and encouragement in enabling us to achieve all this.

- and grateful thanks for setting up this excellent workshop”
