Theatre Devising Workshops / Residencies
Since their formation in 1997 MBD has rapidly become established as one of the most exciting young companies to emerge on the British arts scene with commissions from The National Theatre, Stockton International Riverside Festival, Phoenix Arts (Leicester) and the Leicester Haymarket among others.
“METRO-BOULOT-DODO is one of the brightest of the new crop of theatre companies disregarding theatrical convention.”
The Guardian
“They remind you just how intense and dramatic theatre can be “
The Daily Telegraph
MBD specialise in taking week long devising workshops for students studying theatre from GCSE to Degree Level. During the week MBD will work with a group of students, sharing devising techniques which encourage the creation of devised theatre in a physical, stylised and contemporary manner. By the end of the week, the students will create a new devised performance, which can be shown to a public audience. MBD has been taking workshops for over 8 years and has gained a host of excellent references.
“METRO-BOULOT-DODO demonstrated a high level of professionalism, creativity and friendliness. The students excitement was palpable and their enthusiasm to show their final work was a pressure of pride in the work achieved and the success of the day”
Wyggeston and Queen Elizabeth 1st College, Leicester
“METRO-BOULOT-DODO’s energy and resourcefulness has been an inspiration and has given our academic year a big kick start.”
Hollyfield School, Surrey.
