Actors needed to participate in workshops in preparation for Williamson Tunnel’s Steampunk show, Dismembered Empire!

“In October the gates between Liverpool as we know it and a parallel Liverpool will open up, so we can witness a significant event in this world play out.

This is a Steampunk style parallel world, where Liverpool has become the centre for world trade and economic power. Certain infamous debate raging between two famous scientists, Tesla and Edison, has reached such significance it is ripping the ‘Empire’ in two. The Williamson Tunnels are a source of both work and power for the Empire's citizens. Strange and dangerous secrets lurk in the Tunnel's depths; those close to the truth must make a choice that will affect the lives of many.”
Experience of devised theatre and improvisation desirable, participants should be comfortable with interacting with an audience.
An opportunity to participate in site specific theatre at a unique historical venue!

Workshops:
The workshops are led by Andrew Abrahams, and will involve e.g. Victorian insults & being playful with language, status games, dark comedy, and character building within the world of the show.
