Step into the world of ‘Anti-Theatre’, a term used by playwright Eugene Ionesco to describe theatre that rebelled against the traditional norms of it’s time. Learn how Ionesco, Becket, Pinter and their contemporaries shaped a new genre of performance that subverted logic, relished the unexpected and made the impossible possible. Workshops can be adapted to suit abilities of GCSE, A Level and Undergraduate students and are led by the cast of The Lesson.
