Creative Intensive
‘life is not measured by the breaths we take …….
but by the moments that take our breath away'
Perth Actors Collective
Creative Intensive 10 (residential long weekend)
September 27 - 29, 2008
Is it time you did something for yourself and took some time out to discover where you are at creatively? what’s holding you back and what creative blocks you may have? Perth Actors Collective is proud to present their 10th residential Creative Intensive on the weekend of September 27-29, 2008. This is no ordinary weekend course but one where you can remove yourself from all distractions and enjoy the wonderful monastery town of New Norcia whilst undergoing intensive, challenging and energising creative exercises. Guided tuition will be given by 3 capable and experienced teachers. All your meals and accommodation are provided so that you can focus totally on you.
“The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is to live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof.”
Barbara Kinsolver, American novelist.
