Ella and Melanie Abrahams, both from Slate World UK, will be joined by guest artist Maya Chowdhry (a writer, theatre and technology artist/facilitator and life coach) to talk about online creativity and collaboration, including practical tips on using technology and issues around privacy.

The session will take place on Wed 29 April from 20:00 - 21:00 on Zoom. It’s free but you must book your place by emailing engagement@eclipsetheatre.org.uk.
