Japanese Contemporary Theatre Workshop
Jun 19, 2024

Location Rehearsal Room 1,
New Adelphi Building
School of Arts, Media and Creative Technology

Description ‘Immigrating the Stories of Others’ with Yudai Kamisato
part of the Japan-Britain Contemporary Japanese Theatre Exchange
in collaboration with Lancaster University

What happens when the stories are separated from both the original? What happens when they are translated and re-translated? In the workshop, participants will talk about strange events that they have experienced and what would happen if these stories transcended the region or country and moved or immigrated to another land? How does the story change when you change the place or language of the story?

Yudai Kamisato is an award-winning Japanese theatre playwright and director born in Peru. He creates works with the theme of crossing borders based on the episodes he collects while visiting various places in South America and Asia. He won the first prize in the Toga Directors Competition (2006) and the prestigious Kishida Kunio Prize for Drama for The Story of Descending the Long Slopes of Valparaíso (2018). He stayed in Argentina 2016-2017 on an overseas research grant from the Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs. From 2022 to 2024 he was a Saison Fellow II of the Saison Foundation.

LTEC Festival of Learning and Teaching 2024
Sep 2, 2024

Location University of Salford

Description Adam Fowler is joined by Jonatan Berhane, Clinical Educator, and Nicole Blythe, Programme Lead, Nursing Associate Apprenticeship, from the School of Health and Society at the University of Salford to outline their plans to incorporate podcasting into their modules as a result of the collaboration with Adam and the positive responses from their Nursing Associate trainees and apprentices. This offers an inclusive activity which allows students to bring their own worldview to their learning in a way that better prepares them for their practice in the workplace as evidenced by some of the feedback from students:
"It’s just nice learning but not being lectured. ……and I feel like as a degree apprenticeship it works well because we are a bit different than the average uni degree." 
"This is the best hour or two of all the days we’ve done in uni, I’m not lying  It’s been the perfect end to a really stressful week at uni ."
