devised performance
Devised performance is a type of theatrical or artistic production created collaboratively by a group rather than following a pre-written script. The process involves brainstorming, improvisation, and collective improvisation to generate ideas, themes, and scenes, which are then shaped into a finished work. It emphasizes experimentation, exploration, and the unique contributions of each participant. This approach allows for flexibility, spontaneity, and often a deeper engagement with the creative process, resulting in a piece that reflects the group's collective insights and experiences rather than relying on a traditional playwright’s script.
