This exploring practice workshop considers how consent \u2014 both psychological and physical \u2014 applies to a creative and process-oriented context. While a given project might not have an intimacy coordinator\/director in the room, or even any intimate content, considerations around consent are always present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facilitated by theatre creator and Intimacy Coordinator\/Director Burcu Eme\u00e7, this workshop will focus on consent-forward approaches in the development phase of a performance. The workshop aims to equip artists with tools, practices, and vocabulary to build confidence around consent that they can apply to their own processes. The workshop will also help participants form questions around intimacy, nudity, and other highly charged or sensitive content for consideration in the development phase. This opportunity is open to all artists working in live performance, and may be of particular interest to collective creators, dance makers, interdisciplinary creators, writers, directors, producers, stage managers, choreographers, and dramaturgs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note this workshop does not constitute intimacy coordinator\/director training.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP FACILITATOR:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Burcu Eme\u00e7 is a theatre creator, intimacy coordinator (film\/TV), and intimacy director (live performance) based in Tkaronto (Toronto). Her theatre\/live art practice focuses on narrative beyond text and spatial and visual dramaturgy. She frequently weaves social commentary with images and explores the spaces between performativity and \u201cnon-acting.\u201d Her theatre\/live art work has found its place in varying venues like theatres, galleries, and parks, and has received support from performance companies and festivals like Festival TransAm\u00e9riques (FTA), La SERRE-arts vivants, MAI (Montr\u00e9al, arts interculturels), SummerWorks, Playwrights Workshop Montr\u00e9al, and Public Recordings.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Throughout her artistic path, Burcu has been interested in how the way artists collaborate impacts their work. This interest led her to work at Articule, one of Canada\u2019s oldest artist-run centres, where she played a pivotal role in facilitating anti-harassment and anti-racist advocacy initiatives. The advocacy thread continues in Burcu’s current role as an intimacy professional for stage and screen, where she provides a consent-forward and movement-based framework to tell stories that involve nudity, intimacy, and sensitive content. Certified by SAG-AFTRA accredited IDC: Intimacy Directors and Coordinators (U.S.) and Intimacy Coordinators Canada, Burcu has worked for A24, CBS, Lionsgate, and Paramount+, amongst others. She received training from HBO\u2019s Lead Intimacy Coordinator Alicia Rodis (The Deuce, Insecure, High Maintenance<\/em>), the first to be hired by a major network, and Claire Warden, the first intimacy director on Broadway. Burcu has a complimentary background as an active listener, which enriches her work. Her approach is rooted in a queer, anti-racist, and sex-positive framework, striving to cultivate a supportive and empowering environment for every member of the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
