Starting Realities | International Workshop Series on Documentary Theatre | Part 1|

Documents- Fiction-Falseness | A workshop on Documentary theatre by Kai Tuchmann | | January 18 - 20, | Goethe-Institut/ Max Mueller Bhavan, Mumbai | The first of our international workshop series Starting Realities curated by Anuja Ghosalkar/ DramaQueen & Kai Tuchmann A Youtube video was used as a “document” | In this video Professor He Jiankui, a Chinese scientist, claims to have created the world’s first genetically edited babies | This Youtube video was a provocation for the participants | They had to write either, a fairy tale, a political manifesto OR science fiction as a response to it | The idea was to “play” with this Youtube document using these three genres | Each participant wrote a text in the characteristic style of one of the genres | This individual exercise gave way to a merging of texts and participants | Different parts of different genres were assembled to create a montage of texts | This workshop series is a part of a larger vision to nurture new practitioners and build a community for an international festival of documentary theatre in 2020 |
