Catherine Pinhorn (Pindrop Theatre)
Stars In The Faking is a new organisation which is also a collaboration of artist/performers and actresses who have been working professionally in their given fields for some time. This fusion of experience brings a wealth of knowledge in the performing arts to the public domain and into the realms of education.
Stars In The Faking is able to reach a wide cross section of the community. It will mean that art, work and performance will be accessible to even the members of the public who would not normally visit galleries or theatres.
Stars In The Faking will provide fun whilst learning when providing education programmes for schools and community groups. We will work closely with the curriculum/key stage and or philosophy of the group.
Stars In The Faking will be providing a unique opportunity for an audience to work directly with performers on follow up education programmes. This will give them the direct insight into what it takes to bring character work together and how they can develop a small idea into something big and the process that takes it there knowing what a finished product might look like.
Stars In The Faking believes that art has a universal language and can communicate across barriers where other methods have failed. It is subtle and yet has immense power.
Stars In The Faking believes that each group of our society has much to learn from each other and that art is a non-threatening and accessible medium with which to explore each other's social, political, religious and cultural backgrounds.
We will offer participants new and exciting ways to enjoy the arts and at the end of the programmes, and through our work with them, they will have a raised awareness and appreciation of what the term art means.
Stars In The Faking does not discriminate and will offer this programmes to any group regardless of their background.
