Artistic Vision The vision of InterAct (Wales) is to collaborate and connect to create exciting and challenging theatre through an holistic approach to performance. We operate as a not-for-profit company for the benefit of all our artists. We aim to create and perform issue based theatre at site specific and traditional venues and to make this powerful genre of theatre accessible to all. We strive to bring text-based performances to life by challenging the traditional rehearsal process, creating multi-sensory, multimedia interpretations of both classical pieces and new work. We aim to provide a supportive environment designed to nurture and develop the skills and strengths of our artists as individuals and as a collective. We want to continue the original ethos of the founding of the company by providing a training ground and support network for young people in North Wales who wish to pursue a career in the arts. We wish to engage with and encourage a new generation of artists by working with schools and communities through workshops, open rehearsals and our unique 'create a play in a day' sessions. We want our work to bridge generation gaps and inspire young and old alike. We aim to enrich our local area by encouraging North Wales' artistic professionals to return to work in the area after training. Together we can Collaborate, Connect, Create Vivien Devereux Artistic Director Contact Details Helena Devereux 07903 879647 or Vivien Devereux 01352 744462 |
