Everyone is welcome! In Week 3 of Semester 2, SUDS is facilitating a number of production workshops led by POC creatives and theatremakers. SUDS is invested in the elevation of POC and marginalised voices and experiences in theatre. Our workshops will be run by a collection of old friends and new friends. SUDS Alumni and theatre professionals will speak to their experiences as creatives of colour. We will also have a short discussion at the end of each workshop to discuss the experiences and challenges POC creatives have been facing in theatre and how we can better navigate a safe space for everyone.
Sam Cheng is a POC creative who has been doing sound designing and composition for number of theatrical productions including SUDS, independent theatre company, and professional theatre productions. In this workshop, Sam will be talking about some basic theoretical and practical skills about sound designing and provide some tips for interviewing for a sound designer/ assistant role for future production opportunities!
This workshop is suitable for people who are interested in sound designing and composing and does not require any level of theatrical knowledge. We highly encourage people who are interested in costume designing but have 0 experience to join! This workshop could also count as an experience to apply for costuming production roles for SUDS shows in the future!!!
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our festivals officer (Luna) at sudsthewash@gmail.com
