About this Event
Featuring: Leo Johnson, Adrian Neblett, CR Avery, Jon Hedderwick, Kimmortal, Chris Tse
Hosted by: Johnny D Trinh
Stage to Page produces public masterclasses/workshops led by a panel of industry professionals featuring poets, producers, theatre makers, and more. Vancouver Poetry House is partnering with Stage to Page Performance Society to bring a special public masterclass for Verses 2024. Audiences are allowed to audit and attend the workshop even if they are not being workshopped.
This year, Stage to Page, broadens the scope of interdisciplinary work. Selected poets will be invited to have their submitted poems workshopped and discussed in terms of combining it with music, theatre, and alternative art forms. Their work will be read and performed by the panelists. Concepts on how the pieces may be produced through theatre, culinary art, site specific work, and installation will be discussed. Followed by a collective creation, where artistic producer/host, Johnny D Trinh will facilitate an improvised jam session to take the work further. Following the jam, will be a Q&A period with the panelists and poets.
Workshop participants will be selected by a submission process which will open in March. For more information: [email protected]
