Freshly Picked

Freshly Picked is our annual showcase of the best physical and contemporary theatre from across the UK. We've been scouring the country for the finest new work available and this special season highlights the best of what we found.



Please see below for our hand picked season of workshops and performances.





November
Ellie Harrrison presents The Grief Series

Performance

Etiquette of Grief
Thur 10 November






Ellie knows it can be difficult to express feelings of anger, sadness and loss. She would like to provide some moral support, Dutch courage and perhaps a musical accompaniment to inspire you at this testing time.


Performance

The Reservation
Fri 18 November






The Reservation is an intimate performance for one person at a time. This genuinely moving piece offers visitors the gift of time and the opportunity for reflection and the remembrance of those we love


Workshop

Ellie Harrison: Pleasure, Play and Patience

Sat 12 November
The Carriageworks: upstairs @ the carriageworks, 2pm – 5pm
Tickets: £3

Strategies for making solo and devised performance

This workshop equips participants with tools for generating material for solo and collaborative performance. Ellie’s particular brand of solo performance searches for the sincere in the seemingly synthetic and blends autobiography with pop culture to challenge notions of authenticity and ownership.

Third Angel: Devising With Rules

Sat 19 November
The Carriageworks: Room 4, 2pm – 5pm
Tickets: £3

A great opportunity to work with Third Angel’s Co-Artistic Director Alexander Kelly, who will explore a rule-based approach to devising and text-generating exercises. The workshop follows a performance of Third Angel’s new show What I Heard About the World at Northern Ballet as part of the new season from LMU Gallery and Studio Theatre (5 & 6 Oct, call 0113 220 8008 to book).
