AUDITION ANNOUNCEMENT
Innocence is only a fairytale on the outside.
Fairytales are full of colourful and innocent characters, but after the tales are over what happens to the characters? Innocence is a devised storytelling structure that explores the concept of losing innocence. It may look like a fairytale on the outside (as we follow Alice, Peter, and Red Riding Hood), but it truly explores the trials and tribulations of youth colliding with the darker pieces of adulthood. How do we lose ourselves when sexuality tempts us? What happens if we refuse to let go of a time when things were simple, and what happens when the world you know no longer makes sense. We strive to ask the question: What is it to lose your innocence, and who do you become when it’s gone? Why do we need to keep a piece of ourselves alive?
Come join our workshop team as we create and devise Innocence for Calgary Fringe 2023.
We are looking for performers who are interested in Devised Theatre, as well as performers who may be interested in continuing with the project for Calgary Fringe 2023 and a potential tour to other Canadian Fringes. However if you are only interested in participating in the workshop please still apply!
