up the rabbit hole workshops

creative research collaborator

Exploring/ researching a production of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: The Manhattan Project, with a focus on finding creative solutions to barriers faced by senior artists.

Up the Rabbit Hole brings an intergenerational group of artists, from various communities and of all abilities, together in creative exploration workshops. These artists engage in a hands-on, collaborative and creative process which uses explorations of text, movement, new technology (and a combination thereof).

We ask how we can build practices and techniques to overcome age-related (and other) access barriers in process and performance by examining integrating memory tools and triggers, access tools (such as audio description, captioning), support structures including relational supports, and other best practices in creation.
