Camp Counterpilot 2025

A Creative Development Intensive for Would-Be Troublemakers

Presented by Counterpilot

Learn the art of trouble, mischief and well-meaning chaos. In this workshop series lovingly termed Camp** Counterpilot, key Counterpilot artists will facilitate a first stage creative development process with a crash course on ideation, devising, prototyping and collaboration.

Suitable for any rebellious artist or creative thinker – whether your practice is emerging, or you’re just looking for sideways inspiration. Through this process, we’ll give you a deeper insight into our thinking and our approach to interdisciplinary making. But we’ll also help you find your own idea, and flesh it out into a dynamic performance proposal.

Who is this for?

This series of Camp Counterpilot explores collaborative process. Small groups of 2-5 may apply together – only one person needs to apply on behalf of the group. Individuals can also apply and expect to be matched with new collaborators in the workshops.

Camp Counterpilot is best suited to artists with some form of practice and a willingness to play with process. Both emerging and established artists are encouraged to apply.

**Please note, in this instance ‘camp’ is just a metaphor. One day we’ll run away and make nonsense in the wilderness, but for now all workshops are well-suited to fully-clothed indoors people with day jobs.
