The Multiple Myrtle Mysteries: A Dulwich Time Travel Project

Story Gathering Workshop

When: Saturday the 27th of February from 12.30 to 3pm

Where: Dulwich Library, 368 Lordship Lane, London SE22 8NA

Refreshments will be provided.

Join Simon Ryninks and Emma Tompkins for a fun and informal story gathering workshop and become part of the The Dulwich Time Travel Project.

We are hosting a series of workshops to coincide with the performance of The Multiple Myrtle Mysteries as part of Dulwich Park Fair and Dulwich Festival 2016. We want to hear the local stories that might not make it into the history books, the personal tales of what?s happened in Dulwich over the years, whether they are funny, fated or poignant.

The workshop is an opportunity for anyone interested in getting involved with the performance to hear about the project and share with us the stories they have of Dulwich and the surrounding area. We will be using fun and informal theatre exercises to explore the history and memories of Dulwich. This is a great opportunity if you?re interested in performance, if you?d love a captive audience to tell your memories to or if you want to meet some more of your local community and get involved with the show.

We will take inspiration from the stories you share to form the script and plot for some short films which will be filmed locally and screened as part of a live interactive show during Dulwich Park Fair. The Multiple Myrtle Mysteries follows the intrepid time travelling scientist as she travels back into Dulwich?s past. The stories and characters she bumps into is up to you!

If you?ve lived or worked in Dulwich and would like to share your experiences and contribute to what promises to be a show the likes of which Dulwich has never seen before then come join the fun.

To express interest please email [email protected], it isn?t necessary to do so but we?d love to have an idea about numbers as we?d like to provide some refreshments for the event.

The Multiple Myrtle Mysteries has been created by The Milo Wladek Co in collaboration with Southwark Presents & Dulwich Festival, supported with the generosity of Southwark Council and Arts Council England. Emma and Simon are both experienced community theatre makers having worked with the Young Vic and Old Vic?s Outreach and Community projects respectively.
