On March 25th and 26th, 2024, playwright and philosopher Joshua Wicke will lead a workshop titled “Unworlding Choir.”
During the workshop, the ambiguous history of dramaturgical practice will be examined, understood as a practice of control and normalization. Following historical regulations that delineated which voices and vocalizations were allowed on stage and which were silenced, the ways in which dramaturgy patrols the boundaries of the stage will be questioned. Focusing on broken, hysterical, and disfluent voices, reflections will be made on abolitionist alternatives.
Practical information / Access
The event will take place on March 25th and 26th, 2024, at CASTRO and Carrozzerie N.o.t.
