Súp & Sóp

11^th-17^thJan 2020 with one advance prep day.

A week of collaboration and craic with Ros na Rún story-liner and actor Sorcha Fox and Ros na Rún actor Marie Bheag Breathnach.

Daily, live soap opera where the characters and scenarios are invented by a cast (established actors/new actors and people interested in set/costume/props on the island)

An advance day where we meet up, see who is interested in the different disciplines and settle on our list of characters – we go away with homework for locations and storylines.

The first day (Sat 11^th  Jan 2020), we brainstorm with what we have, that night Sorcha and Marie Bheag storyline the first episode giving a short outline for each scene. The next day it is rehearsed by the group in the morning and performed live at lunchtime as the audience are served soup! After the show we take feedback from the audience about what they would like to see happen in the next ‘episode’, we storyline that night and it happens all over again the following day.

What would be required is a dedicated group who would be willing to meet before the week in question, would be up for some improvisation, chaos and craic and commit to being involved for the week.
