David GlaSS
Led by modern master David Glass, Alchemy of the Extraordinary is an intensive training course. David’s work has influenced and been employed by theatre companies and educational, social development and corporate organisations around the world (UN, Save the Children, Gecko, 111 Program and many more). David Glass’s workshops are noted for their rigour, playfulness and impact.
A small number of individuals and companies have led the post-war age of performance and digital arts. As one of those, David Glass is among this group. He has delivered his clear learning framework for Creative Practice in 87 countries. This included work with the Ministry of Education China, The UN, Save The Children and numerous theatre companies around the world. David’s work bridges his teachers: Lecoq, Grotowski, Boal, Alfreds and Aley. David now wishes to consolidate his legacy by bringing his progressive and creative approaches to a new generation of mavericks and creative change makers. The David Glass Ensemble develops long term sustainable work through original work, adaptations and ongoing socially relevant projects (such as The Lost Child Project, AB Project and This Changes Everything – concerning itself with Climate Change, Capitalism and Ecocide).

Life is at its heart creative and the narratives and emotions that surround us are the stuff that build our practice. The course will be primarily experiential, exploring the creative reservoirs of the Child, Adolescent and Elder that is present in our lives before supplying the Creative Practice framework to shape these experiences.

JEUDi is an arts group led by Korina Kokkali and Simon Gleave that combines a performance company with a school for dance, performance and creativity. They have been co-running Alchemy with David Glass since 2021.
JEUdi is a performing arts company that works between performance, research and learning.
Driven by the understanding that play is a fundamental form of learning, engaging with and transforming the world, we want to bring collaborators and audience together to touch new territories in performance and research.
Our Mission
Alchemy of the Extraordinary is an international project that has run for 4 consecutive years with over 40 participants from more than 15 countries including Europe, US, Canada and Australia. Our aim is to create a network of creatives and a community that continues to grow and inform further than the course itself.
