The Cheap Flight Show is a project that was part of the TWISFER (Theatre Work in Social Fields) Congress in September 2005, held in Graz, Austria, and Sentilj, Slovenia. TWISFER is run by uni-T, the arts and cultural section of Karl Franzens Universitat, Graz which had invited me to lead a workshop on devising that would result in a performance outcome.

We made a site-specific piece, which drew inspiration from the building we worked in and its environment, and questions about our collective nature as Europeans.

The e-book demonstrates some of the practice included in this workshop on devising, improvisation and site-specific performance at Karl Franzens Universitat.

Our workshop took place at Der Retzhof, Leibnitz, Austria, from 12th - 18th September 2005. The documentation charts the variety of studio and rehearsal work undertaken over the week and includes a film of the performance. Simple written commentary accompanies each video.

The e-book relates to my article in a special edition of the UK journal 'Research in Drama Education', which is included in the e-book with the permission of the publishers, as well as another article for a German journal written by a participant.
