October workshop Newhampton Arts Centre, Wolverhampton 18 October 2003
THE WEST MIDLANDS RDPY2 programme kicked off with a fantastic combination of workshops in October: youth theatre leaders took part in a physical theatre workshop with Thérèse Collins of Foursight Theatre; and participants sampled different styles of mask work with Jackie Riddell and Marie Davis. The event also gave a platform for youth theatres to talk about the work they do, with a view to choosing partners in the developing West Midlands Youth Theatres twinning scheme: an extremely interesting and informative part of the day. A full report and photographs from the October event will be posted on the NAYT website in due course.
