The Directors' Forum: The Six Senses of the Director

In April 2010 CPR invited some of the most exciting and diverse Wales-based and international theatre directors to Aberystwyth for an intensive participatory project that offered a rare opportunity for both experienced and emerging directors to gather and share the methods, approaches and skills of professional directing practice via laboratories and presentations, demonstrations and dialogue.

Guest Directors included: Veenapani Chawla (Adishakti Centre, India), Das Beckwerk (Denmark), Richard Gregory (Quarantine, UK), Bill Hamblett (Small World Theatre, Wales), Natalie Hennedige (Cake Theatre, Singapore), Adrian Jackson (Cardboard Citizens, UK), Ruth Kanner (Ruth Kanner Theatre Group, Israel), Julian Maynard Smith (Station House Opera, UK), John McGrath (National Theatre of Wales), Anders Paulin (Sweden), Ralf Richardt Strobech (Hotel Pro Forma, Denmark), Tore Vagn Lid (Transiteatret-Bergen, Norway)

Throughout the forum our team of bursary barters and other participating directors updated the Directors' Forum blog with exploratory findings and news from inside the laboratories.
