"Good Fortune" Theatre Workshop【French May Arts Festival 2024】French May Arts Festival

In 2023, French playwright and director Nicolas Kerszenbaum spent two months in Hong Kong. During his time in residence, he conducted the interviews and explored the landscapes that would inspire his play, Good Fortune.

How did Kerszenbaum adapt his experiences and encounters into a play? In this workshop, he will guide participants through the text and creative process of Good Fortune and suggest a few simple exercises to help them write their own texts. He will also invite participants to act out selected scenes from the show before seeing the final version onstage.

This four-hour workshop offers both an exploration of writing a text, and the chance to receive professional direction from a director and playwright on his own texts.

- Workshop conducted in English.
