Clap - A VERBAITIM THEATRE R&D

Clap is a new verbatim play developed by Etch after Co-Artistic Director Ruth Milne was supported by Arts Council England via their DYCP grant, to develop her practise in verbatim and documentary theatre.

As part of the development process Etch held an R&D week on the project in Summer 2023.

‘Clap’, a verbatim play exploring experiences of the Coronavirus pandemic, is about how polarity happens and how things start to look when we allow ourselves to let the grey complexities back into a world of increasingly black and white debate.
