Kosice 4-7 July 2024
In the words of our participants:
“ Our summer residency took place in Kosice, Slovakia. We had been due to meet in Ukraine but hoped that Kosice would make it possible for as many Ukrainian participants as possible to attend.
Over two packed days, Sarah Golding, Matt Cheney and Lilliia Gomoslka took 20 participants on a journey to look at audience development, challenging them to think about how their completed dramas will reach an audience. Each of the eight groups were represented and those representatives will now go back to work with the rest of their group on individual audience development strategies.
But the residency was also a very valuable opportunity to reconnect across the project, including through the medium of European football!”
