After watching four choreographic works, the observers will engage participants in real time through varied methodologies and question prompts, eliciting written responses that register their affective, critical, and imaginative encounters with performance. The texts generated in situ will be included in the second section of the festival publication Choreographing Across Cities, constituting an alternative layer of documentation and discursive extension of the works. Framing spectators as active co-authors rather than passive receivers, the workshop seeks to reactivate the performance environment as a site of exchange, reflection, and intervention, where writing operates as a live practice that is co-present with exhibition and stage presentations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u4e09\u4f4d\u821e\u8e48\u796d\u89c0\u5bdf\u54e1\u6f58\u601d\u660e\uff0c\u5f90\u7693\u9716\u548c\u9ec3\u5609\u701b\u4ea6\u6703\u5728\u73fe\u5834\u8207\u5de5\u4f5c\u574a\u7684\u53c3\u8207\u8005\u4f5c\u5c0f\u7d44\u5c0d\u8a71\uff0c\u5f9e\u95b1\u8b80\u5f7c\u6b64\u7684\u6587\u5b57\u4e2d\u5c0b\u627e\u65b0\u7684\u89c0\u770b\u89d2\u5ea6\u3002\u89c0\u773e\u4e0d\u518d\u53ea\u662f\u88ab\u52d5\u7684\u63a5\u6536\u8005\uff0c\u800c\u662f\u80fd\u4ee5\u66f8\u5beb\u4ecb\u5165\u3001\u56de\u61c9\u8207\u5171\u540c\u5efa\u69cb\u8a0e\u8ad6\u7684\u4eba\uff0c\u91cd\u65b0\u6253\u958b\u8868\u6f14\u5834\u57df\u5167\u4ea4\u6d41\u8207\u60f3\u50cf\u7684\u53ef\u80fd\uff0c\u8b93\u6587\u5b57\u751f\u6210\u6210\u70ba\u8207\u5c55\u89bd\u548c\u6f14\u51fa\u4e26\u7f6e\u7684\u4e00\u7a2e\u53ef\u88ab\u770b\u898b\u3001\u53ef\u88ab\u611f\u77e5\u7684\u73fe\u5834\u8868\u6f14\u3002<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong>Live Writing Workshop<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">15.06.2026 (Mon) 1 &#8211; 2:30pm<br>1a space, Cattle Depot Artist Village<br>Free Registration<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.art-mate.net\/doc\/96172\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Register Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-theme-palette-3-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-theme-palette-3-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Producers\u2019 Forum<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-333f4bb2a608eac537b3011e2a0fd9ed wp-block-paragraph\">(2 sessions)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bringing together festival curators, producers and venue programmers from neighbouring regions, these sessions foster in-depth conversation and exchange around the future development and touring potential of the works, as well as practical experiences of international collaboration, festival curation and venue programming.
