SUMMARY:Yes\, Poetry Can Handle This - Writing the Unpoetic
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM\, OPEN ALL SQUADS \nThis workshop looks at the thematic boundaries of poetry – the gnarly\, uncomfortable edges – and asks how we can write about things that are inherently unpoetic. There’s a tension between being gratuitously unpleasant vs. making good art that says the unsaid. We’re going to think about where that line is and how we can navigate it.

SUMMARY:Making Visible with Andrew McMillan
DESCRIPTION:SQUAD 10\, MANCHESTER – VENUE TBC \nAndrew’s third and latest collection\, pandemonium\, is an extraordinary raw exploration of fracture and distance\, of the mind and the body in trouble. Andrew says\, “one of the things I realise pandemonium one is trying to do is discover how to make the internal\, the emotional\, visible in a poem.” \nIn a practical workshop of reading examples and writing exercises Andrew will lead us in exploring the personal and how unseen things can make themselves visible in poems.

SUMMARY:Awesome Script Club - Jojo Rabbit
DESCRIPTION:Hitler Youth cadet Jojo Betzler firmly believes in the ideals of Nazism manifested by his imaginary friend\, Adolf Hitler. However\, his foundations are shaken when he finds a Jewish girl in his house. \n— \nWhat to expect at Awesome P&SPR Club? \nThe zoom is informal and relaxed. No one is put on the spot. We tend to look at the text from 3 positions: \nHow did it make you feel / think as a reader? \nWhat kind of themes/ideas is it exploring (so a kind of Eng Lit pov)? \nWhat kind of ideas/tools does it give to you as a writer? \nThat’s it. If that sounds like your kind of thing\, then Matt and Emma will be delighted to see you on the night.

SUMMARY:Interactive Storytelling in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM\, OPEN ALL SQUADS \nInteractive Storytelling in the 21st Century with Krishna Stott \nIn this workshop\, you will test the concept of ‘interactivity’ through screenings\, discussion and creating your own interactive sequences. \nThe workshop will give you a thorough grounding about how interactive storytelling fits into the world – for play and work.
