CASSANDRA

Module 1

Welcome to the Cassandra toolbox!

A practical guide to creating an artist development program for socially engaged storytellers, inspired by the Cassandra project model. It will walk you step by step through the process the Cassandra team used to support an international group of young storytellers as they each creatively explored European values, to develop and stage a solo performance, fit for professional, international stages.

Who is it for?

This toolbox is for storytelling organisations, festivals, independent storytellers, local culture officers and community workers who are passionate about socially engaged storytelling and creating opportunities for others to grow. If you’re involved in mentorship, creative development programmes, or using storytelling to inspire social change, we hope this guide will be a valuable resource to support and spark your work.

How to use it

For all steps in the process this toolbox provides examples and useful material. You are not looking at a linear guide or book but at a pick and mix of useful objects: texts to read, podcasts to listen to, videos to watch, sites to explore… There is no direction to follow, just a selection of resources to access according to need.
