Extant maintains on-going research, consultation, planning and project development. Here are some highlights of our up-coming developments…

Youth Theatre.

In the spring of 2010 Extant will be working in partnership with The Wallace Collection Manchester Square to run a series of drama workshops with groups of visually impaired young people from East London. We will use paintings in the collection as a basis for creating and analysing the drama within the workshops.

Dance Stage

In the Autumn of 2010 Extant will be running a series of dance workshops in Tap, Tango, Flamenco and Contemporary. We will be holding these at the Oval House for 10 weeks leading towards a small presentation at the end of the project. The workshops will be open to visually impaired professional performers as well as new comers who would like to have a go. More information on this will be announced nearer the time. This project is supported by Awards for All.

Resistance

Extant has now produced a DVD on the making of our first national and international tour, ‘Resistance 2005’. The DVD is broken down into 15 short chapters that tell the story of the creation, Setting up, rehearsals, access, tour management, production highlights, Peter Brook’s involvement, taking the show to France and an interview with a surviving blind resistance fighter. The menus are accessible with audio labels, and each chapter can be selected and viewed individually if chosen, or watched collectively in two parts.

Please contact us for more details on obtaining a copy.
