Devising with or without a Text

David Glass, thinking on the future of theatre, started to work with the ‘next generation’. And since the inception of the ensemble in 1990, has created works which reviewers have described as “inspiring and dynamic” and “masterful.” David shares on how to take non-traditional works and devised them into a performance, using examples from the works that he has staged, like Dickens ‘Bleak House”, “City of Darkness”, “This Changes Everything” and “Brides”.
