Our theater collective has been devising work together for two years but we've developed this dynamic where the same three people always end up making the final decisions and the rest of us just go along with it. We all joined because we wanted collaborative creation but somehow we've recreated exactly the hierarchies we were trying to avoid.
More people experience this than they realize.
The ideals of collective creation dissolve into familiar power patterns when the pressure of actually making something forces someone to decide.
“Where Are You with Theater and dramatic arts?”
Peri can explain why this happens, help you decide if this is the right situation for you, and point toward the right journey or coach.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
