Open Clasp, Open Archive: Preserving the company's legacy, demonstrating its impact and value, and opening access to its unique archive of feminist th

Open扣使剧院以独特而有力的方式整合了创造性和社会参与的实践。阐明和评估公司活动的全部范围是具有挑战性的，因为它跨越了一系列实践的边界。该项目将使用Open Clasp的档案来记录、分析和反思其自1998年以来在戏剧中对社会变革的社会和美学独特性及其影响。通过将公司置于女权主义戏剧的背景下，构建其独特贡献的历史，并评估其影响，它将对社会参与戏剧的辩论做出重大干预。

Open Clasp make theatre that integrates creative and socially engaged practice in unique and powerful ways. Articulating and evaluating the full scope of the company's activity is challenging because it crosses the boundaries of a range of practices. This project will use Open Clasp's archive to document, analyse and reflect on the social and aesthetic distinctiveness and impact of its work in theatre for social change since 1998. By situating the company in the context of feminist theatre, constructing a history of its distinctive contribution, and evaluating its impact, it will make a significant intervention in debates on socially-engaged theatre.
