“I joined without knowing what to expect, and I got out with a lot of surprising discoveries about myself and about how I interact with others.”

“Every session was a new experience which I really appreciated. I left the sessions feeling anew.”

“Overall, it has been an enriching programme. i made friends with the facilitators and my batch mates, and it was really fun doing the exercises, engaging in deep discussions, and figuring things out with them. Sure, there were times I was damn tired or frustrated internally, but experiences, both good and bad, are valuable to me.”

“The experience was valuable and fun. Despite not having much theatre background, I think this experience has made me see the value of theatre and even other forms of expressive arts.”

“Every session is fun, and I learnt different points during each stage of the journey.”

“The experience forced me out of monotony. It pushed me to move in ways I’ve never moved before and think about what different things mean to me and why. ”

“It was overall a fun experience. I loved not knowing/not needing to know what was next. Just stay in the present moment and enjoy it. ”

“It was fun, freeing, and helped me see with more clarity both the work that I need to do as well as the possibilities that exist.”

“Unique experience but filled with useful life lessons.”

“Rewarding, looking inwards & outwards, engaging with fellow participants - a really unique experience. ”

“I experienced shifts in my interpretations of certain past memories, experienced my similarities and differences from others, and the wisdom of others as well. I experienced acceptance (from others and from myself)!”

“Overall, I enjoyed the WOTS programme and I have definitely expanded my actor’s tool box with what I have learned. The programme has instilled both discipline and flexibility within me at the same time - discipline from being able to understand and follow structures, and then flexibility when it comes to breaking those structures creatively. ”

“Thank you!! I like moving and I appreciate having a body. ”

“I think it was definitely a good time set aside to focus on myself amidst my busy schedule and to bring back to light certain crucial moments in my life that I have not been actively accessing (whether intentionally or not). It was an enjoyable time and I know that I will be finishing this programme with new friends and also with new learnings that will definitely chart my journey forward from here on out.”

“F*cking annoying, f*cking great. I specifically applaud the choice to 1) never suggest we share our associations within the ensemble and 2) never share our journals. It provided safety barriers and boundaries that kept the process well-balanced in terms of being open and also personal.”

“I rarely have the space to work so much on the self, so that’s great. ”

“Overall, I enjoyed my experience and am confident of myself as well as my vulnerability. Though it may not be 100%, the programme has provided me a step in the right direction.”

“It was an eye-opening experience! Opportunity to discover and room to feel!”

“If not I come back every week for what? Saving my life this programme.”

“Eye-opening and soul-searching: uncovered some pretty and not-so-pretty things about myself that I am better equipped to deal with.”
