Exploring Process
Atresbandes with Bertrand Lesca and Nasi Voutsas
Join Atresbandes, Bert and Nasi, the artists behind It Don't Worry Me (part of GIFT on Fri 1 May, 8pm), for a session exploring their own distinct methods for theatre making, and the processes they encountered coming together to create the show.
Open to all theatre practitioners – tune in to gain inspiration from Atresbandes’ laboratory theatre, emphasising the process of creation in order to question the world around us, and Bertrand Lesca and Nasi Voutsas’ play on humour and brutality.
Artist biographies
Atresbandes
Atresbandes is a performing arts company emerged from an artistic and personal meeting of minds between Mònica Almirall, Miquel Segovia and Albert Pérez Hidalgo. In 2008 we decided to form a company. As the group has grown and developed so have the methods we use to approach the act of creation. Though influenced by an enormous variety of disciplines, our work is characterised by a single constant: advocacy for a theatre laboratory where the process of creation is paramount. We seek to question everything around us. This is the one thing that drives our approach to contemporary theatre.
Bertrand Lesca and Nasi Voutas
Bertrand Lesca and Nasi Voutsas are two performance makers. They are produced by Farnham Maltings and are Associate Artists with MAYK. Their work sits somewhere between live art and theatre, but if you held them against a wall, they would probably say it's theatre.
