How to make creative producing creative // Eva Præstiin and Karen Toftegaard
The informal CPH BreakFast is artistic inspiration during one-hour-breakfast. This spring we will focus on how we talk about artistic productions in our collaborations. How do we create a mutually beneficial creative collaboration?
Special guests on June 13: Manager/Producer Eva Præstiin from Betty Nansen and Producer/Author Karen Toftegaard talk about creativity. Which strategies do you use to nurture creativity in productions, in your leadership and in yourself. Discussions about creativity – the role and premises for it – are important in performing arts as creativity is easily lost in deadlines, performance anxiety, and many other potential saboteurs – if it isn’t framed well.
- Which professional strategies do you use to make creativity a natural part of your process?
- How do you encourage others to maintain creativity as an integral part of every work process?
