29 Dec (Sat) - 30 Dec (Sun)
Co-organized by The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA) and hosted by the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs), the two-day Theatre Arts Workshop was successfully held on 29-30 December 2018. The workshop is one of the activities of “Slash Nomads Project” which was presented by TWGHs. It aimed to provide a platform for participants to understand the importance of performing arts in our society. It attracted the participation of many teenagers who are interested in theatre arts. Participants were taught different basic stage management theories and techniques through different sessions, such as stage production, lighting design, and sound design. In addition, participants were assigned to complete different tasks during the workshop, including a small scale stage production together in the final session. The participating students expressed their enjoyment and appreciation for this workshop. The two-day workshop has enhanced the participants’ interest in theatre arts and understanding of HKAPA through detailed explanation from the facilitators. TWGHs thanks the Academy for the support to the workshop. Another workshop featured with devising theatre will be jointly held in April 2019.
